Items in this pack : Item #1 - Click to view individual item DHM200. Scotland Forever by Lady Elizabeth Butler. Probably the best known painting of the gallant charge of the Royal North Dragoons, The Scots Greys at the Battle of Waterloo. According to an eyewitness, Alexander Armour, at the start of the charge of the Greys had to pass through the ranks of the Highland Brigade and armour recalled : The highlanders were then ordered to wheel back, when they did so we rushed through them at the same time they heard us calling 'Now my boys, Scotland Forever'. Open edition print. Image size 32in x 15in (81cm x 38cm)
Item #2 - Click to view individual item DHM004. Capture of the French Eagle by Sgt Ewart by Sulliven. Sgt Ewart is shown taking the French standard from the 45th French Infantry Regiment. Ewart cut down two French soldiers and the standard Bearer to keep hold of the Eagle and standard, he was ordered to take it to the rear. By being ordered to the rear, this probably saved his life and also the standard for the regiment, as the rest of the regiment continued charging forward to French artillery positions, much further than they should have gone, now with very tired horses and unable to rally, the Scots Greys were attacked by Farines Brigade of Cavalry (6th and 9th Cuirassiers.) and later by the 4th Lancers, very few managed to return to the British Lines. Open edition print. Image size 21 inches x 15 inches (53cm x 38cm)
