The Investiture of the Order of the Bath - A Historic Moment in British Military History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in British military history - "The Investiture of the Order of the Bath". Set at the Head Quarters of the British Army before Sebastopol during the Crimean War, this color lithograph by William Simpson depicts an elaborate ceremony that took place in 1855. The scene showcases Rear-Admiral Sir Edmund Lyons, known for his striking resemblance to Admiral Nelson, standing first in line to be invested as a Knight Grand Cross of the Order. Following him is Major-General Sir Colin Campbell, with Generals James Scarlett, William Eyre, Richard Airey, and Henry Bentinck eagerly awaiting their turn to become Knights Commander. Presided over by Stratford Canning, First Viscount Stratford de Redcliffe - then serving as the British Ambassador at Constantinople - this investiture ceremony holds immense historical significance. The prestigious Order of the Bath was bestowed upon distinguished individuals who displayed exceptional service and merit within their military careers. E Morin's colored lithograph beautifully brings this historic event to life. Published by Paul and Dominic Colnaghi and printed by Day and Son as part of "The Seat of War in East - Second Series" it offers a glimpse into an era where honor and valor were celebrated through grand ceremonies such as these. This remarkable print from Fine Art Finder allows us to immerse ourselves in a pivotal moment when brave men were recognized for their contributions on behalf of Queen and country.
