EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Glengarry badge from around 1876, crafted in brass. The English School of the 19th century beautifully captured this emblem, now housed at the National Army Museum in London. The badge belonged to the other ranks of the renowned 93rd (Sutherland Highlanders) Regiment and is adorned with intricate details. Within a wreath of thistles, symbolizing Scotland, lies a circlet bearing the title "SUTHERLAND HIGHLANDERS". Enclosed within this circlet is a pierced numeral: "93" signifying its affiliation with one of Britain's esteemed regiments. Below the wreath are two scrolls proudly displaying battle honors earned by these valiant soldiers: "CAPE OF GOOD HOPE" and "BALAKLAVA". To crown it all off, quite literally, rests an elegant monarchial crown atop this remarkable piece. This Glengarry badge represents not only military identity but also Scottish heritage and Victorian era craftsmanship. The significance of this artifact goes beyond mere decoration; it serves as an identification for infantrymen who served under the banner of the 93rd Regiment during their active years from 1862 to 1881. Its presence evokes memories of bravery on distant battlefields and pays tribute to those who fought under its proud insignia. This photograph captures every minute detail - from metalwork intricacies to vibrant thistle motifs - making it an invaluable addition to any collection celebrating militaria or Scottish history enthusiasts alike.
