K for Kings Royal Rifles and L for Life Guards (1st) - Two Distinguished Regiments of the British Army This charming chromolithograph print, taken from the children's book "Military ABC" published in 1889, showcases two iconic regiments of the British Army: the Kings Royal Rifles (K) and the Life Guards (L) (1st). The Kings Royal Rifles, also known as the "KR Rifles," were a distinguished infantry regiment with a rich history dating back to 1685. Originally formed as the Prince of Wales's Own Regiment of Foot, they were later renamed the Rifle Brigade in 1800 and eventually became the Kings Royal Rifle Corps in 1885. The regiment was renowned for its sharpshooting skills and distinctive green uniforms. The Life Guards (1st), on the other hand, were one of the oldest and most prestigious cavalry regiments in the British Army. Established in 1659, they were originally known as the "Cavalry of the Guard" and later renamed the "Life Guards" in 1661. The regiment was famous for its red uniforms and the distinctive bearskin helmets that are still worn by the Household Cavalry today. Both regiments played significant roles in various battles and campaigns throughout history, from the English Civil War to the Crimean War, and even the First and Second World Wars. This print serves as a testament to their long and storied histories, as well as their continued importance in the British military tradition. The intricate details of the soldiers' uniforms and the regimental insignia are beautifully rendered in this print, making it a fascinating glimpse into the past and a valuable historical record. The use of vibrant colors and the meticulous attention to detail further enhance the visual appeal of this charming illustration.
