EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of the Victorian era, with a group of 12th Lancers Cavalry Regiment soldiers, circa 1858. The image showcases the raw power and grace of the horse and rider, a defining characteristic of the cavalry regiments during this period. The soldiers, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, exude a sense of pride and discipline. The 12th Lancers, also known as the 'Prince of Wales's Lancers,' were a renowned British cavalry regiment, established in 1716. They were known for their red and yellow uniforms, which can be clearly seen in this photograph. The horses, well-groomed and strong, are a testament to the care and attention given to the animals that were essential to the success of the regiment. The soldiers are shown in various stages of readiness, some adjusting their helmets, others checking their weapons, and a few simply resting, highlighting the daily routine of a cavalry regiment. The photograph, taken in the late 1850s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of horseback warfare and military tradition.
