EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming chromolitho print captures a delightful moment between two cavalry soldiers as they raise their glasses in celebration of the New Year. The late 19th-century greetings card showcases the camaraderie and friendship shared among these brave men serving in the armed forces. Dressed in their distinguished uniforms, complete with swords, helmets, and boots, these cavalrymen exude a sense of pride and honor. Their meticulously groomed mustaches add an air of sophistication to their appearance. As they clink glasses filled with what one can only assume is a well-deserved drink after days spent on duty, their smiles reveal genuine enjoyment. The historical significance of this image cannot be overlooked; it offers us a glimpse into the lives of soldiers during this era. It serves as a reminder that even amidst combat units and platoons, bonds were formed and friendships flourished. The Victorian-style card itself adds to its ephemeral charm, capturing the essence of late 19th-century aesthetics. This piece from the Valerie Jackson Harris Collection is not just an exquisite work of art but also a testament to human connection and celebration. As we admire this print by English School from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, let us appreciate the joyous spirit depicted within it—a timeless portrayal that transcends time and reminds us to cherish moments shared with friends while raising our own glasses in celebration.
