EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia print captures the stoic and distinguished presence of Colour-Sergeant John Paul, a veteran of the British Army during the Crimean War. Taken in 1856 by renowned photographers Joseph Cundall and Robert Howlett, this portrait showcases the bravery and resilience of a true soldier. Standing tall with his military uniform adorned with medals, Sergeant Paul exudes an air of authority and experience. His hat sits firmly on his head, complementing his well-groomed beard that adds to his commanding appearance. The sash across his chest signifies his rank and achievements within the Royal Sappers and Miners. With rifle in hand, Sergeant Paul's gaze is focused yet contemplative, perhaps reflecting on the trials he endured during the Crimean War. This photograph serves as a testament to those who fought alongside him, capturing their courage and dedication. Set against a simple backdrop, this three-quarter length portrait highlights every detail of Sergeant Paul's countenance. The Victorian era aesthetic adds an element of historical significance to this image. Preserved by the National Army Museum in London as part of their collection titled "Crimean Heroes 1856" this photograph offers viewers a glimpse into one man's journey through war. It serves as a reminder of those who have served their country selflessly throughout history.
