19th C. Military Watercolour 9th Lancers C. 1889
We are pleased to offer this exceptionally detailed 19th Century watercolour of an officer of the 9th (Queens Royal) Lancers in Parade Order, which was purchased as one of a pair, the other one being signed with a monogram and dated 1889. The monogram being any combination of the letters CCJ or CCY. The painting depicts a lancer of the 9th Lancers, mounted on a black bay horse.
This is the second of a pair of watercolours by this artist that we are listing.
The 9th Queen's Royal Lancers was a cavalry regiment of the British Army, first raised in 1715. It saw service for three centuries, including the First and Second World Wars. The regiment survived the immediate post-war reduction in forces, but was amalgamated with the 12th Royal Lancers to form the 9th/12th Royal Lancers in 1960.
In 1841, the regiment was sent on its first posting to India, where it fought in the Gwalior campaign (1843), including the Battle of Punniar (1843).
It then served in the Sikh Wars (1845-46 and 1848-49). During these two campaigns, it saw action at Sobraon (1846) and Chillianwallah (1849), before undertaking a successful charge at Gujerat (1849).
During the Indian Mutiny (1857-59), the regiment took part in the Capture of Delhi (1857), Relief of Lucknow (1857) and Capture of Lucknow (1858), winning 12 Victoria Crosses. It also earned the nickname ‘the Delhi Spearmen’ for its fighting prowess.
Next, the Second Afghan War (1878-80) saw the regiment in action at Charasiab (1879), Killa Kazi (1879), Kabul (1879) and Kandahar (1880). Two decades of garrison service in India, England and Ireland followed.
Its final deployment of the 19th century was to the Boer War (1899-1902), where it fought in many engagements, including Belmont (1899), Modder River (1899), Magersfontein (1899), Relief of Kimberley (1899) and Paardeberg (1900).
Unfortunately, although checking the potential monogrammes in Peter Nahum's book of Victorian Monograms, we were unable to find the full name of the artist.
The painting is newly double mounted in two-tone acid-free mount board and is newly framed in a blue/black 1 7/16ths inch frame with ochre lines. It will be supplied with new brass hangers, new brass picture wire and will be ready to hang.
Image size: 9 3/4 x 5 3/4 inches - 24.75cm x 14.6cm
Frame size: 17 5/8 x 13 5/8 inches - 44.75cm x 34.5cm
Medium: Watercolours on grey watercolour board
Condition: Excellent. There is no foxing and the colours are strong. The mounts and frame are new.
