Description

This portrait was likely commissioned as a keepsake to be sent home to this young officer’s beloved before he set out on campaign. An officer of the 7th Royal Fusiliers, he wears a scarlet coat with gold buttons, high collar and gold epaulettes, the plate on his cross-belt decorated with the rose and crown insignia of his regiment.

*

The portrait is set in the original gold clasp frame that would have been strung with pearls or with plaited hair to be worn as a bracelet. There is some fading to the face and a small spot of paint loss to the outside edge but otherwise the piece is in good condition.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
