EDITORS COMMENTS
A Sunday at Home with the Household Cavalry" captures a moment of respite and camaraderie within the military ranks. This enchanting engraving by Charles Edwin Fripp, dating back to 1887, offers a glimpse into the daily lives of these esteemed soldiers. As they gather in their home away from home, we witness a scene filled with both routine tasks and cherished moments. In this print, we see corporals on leave returning to their barracks after attending church parade. The atmosphere is alive with activity as soldiers engage in various duties – some bringing coffee for their comrades while others clean buttons or attend to important discoveries. Amidst the challenges faced by these brave men, there is an undeniable sense of unity and shared purpose. The stables stand nearby, where horses are tended to with care and dedication. A soldier diligently swabs the floor while another tackles the difficulties of cleaning water troughs. These small acts contribute to maintaining order and discipline within this esteemed cavalry unit. As evening approaches, lights out signals time for rest after a long day's work. Soldiers prepare themselves for bed - buttoning up uniforms and completing their nightly toilette before reveille calls them back into action once more. This evocative engraving not only showcases the meticulous attention to detail characteristic of Fripp's artistry but also invites us into an intimate world rarely seen by outsiders: "A Sunday at Home with the Household Cavalry.
