Mote, this artwork captures the essence of Viscount Torrington, who served as the First Commissioner of the Admiralty during his time. The image has been digitally cleaned to restore its original glory, allowing us to appreciate every intricate detail. As we gaze upon this engraving from The Gallery of Engravings circa 1880, we are transported back to a significant period in history.

His plate armor symbolizes strength and resilience while exuding an air of authority befitting a soldier of his caliber. Surrounded by traditional armory and weaponry, this print immerses us into an era where soldiers were revered for their bravery on the battlefield. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who served in combat units like Byng's platoon. Whether it be male or female soldiers or conscripts fighting alongside navy troops, armed forces played a vital role during that century.
