The Chasseurs d'Afrique, 1856. Creator: Henry Duff Linton
The Chasseurs d'Afrique, 1856. Crimean War: These mounted Zouaves, who rendered such timely aid to our heroic countrymen in the deadly struggle of Inkerman, when the Russians outnumbered our troops in the proportion of six to one, rank foremost among the various divisions of the French army for all true soldierlike qualities. Truly has it been said of them, by a recent historian of their brave deeds, that they are "indomitable in fight, patient under difficulties, fierce as panthers, yet joyous and tender as children". From "Illustrated London News", 1856

The Chasseurs d'Afrique, a French cavalry regiment, are depicted here in their distinctive uniforms, showcasing a unique blend of African and European influences. The Chasseurs d'Afrique were renowned for their bravery and unwavering commitment during the Crimean War, particularly during the Battle of Inkerman. Outnumbered by the Russians six to one, these mounted Zouaves provided invaluable support to the British troops, earning them a place among the most esteemed divisions of the French army. The Chasseurs d'Afrique were celebrated for their indomitable spirit in battle, their patience under adversity, and their fierce determination, reminiscent of panthers. Yet, they were also known for their joyous and tender nature, much like children. These qualities are encapsulated in the words of a recent historian, who penned a tribute to their valiant deeds. The photograph features a group of Chasseurs d'Afrique riders, clad in their distinctive apparel, which includes a red fez, a blue tunic, white trousers, and a red sash.
