The vibrant colors of this lithograph bring to life a historical event that showcases bravery and heroism. The image is part of a set of cigarette cards published by John Player in the early 20th century, illustrating different recipients of the Victoria Cross.

His unwavering determination shines through as he leads his men into battle with great courage. This depiction serves as an encouragement to all who view it, reminding us that even in times of adversity, we can find strength within ourselves to face any challenge head-on.
