10th or Prince of Wales’s Own Light Dragoons


Private and Officer’s Charger 1793


George Stubbs painted more than one picture of the men and horses of the 10th Light Dragoons. This one has a private in jacket and shell, fully accoutred with carbine, sword and bayonet. His yellow turbaned helmet clearly shows the Feathers badge on the right side. The officer’s charger has a similar shabraque to the one worn on the sergeant’s horse in the better-known painting, but there are wreaths and crowns added to the circular regimental badge.
