| Portrait of British officer Benjamin Everard. Oil on canvas. Circa 1813. Size: 22.5" x 16.5" Offered in an antique lemon yellow gilt frame, which is stamped "G.A. Plowman, Builder." This full length unsigned portrait of a British officer in uniform, with dress sword and cap, is identified by an early label, affixed to the stretcher, as "Benjamin Everard, Ensign 21st Foot, 25 Feb. 1813, served in the Marahtta War." British Army records show that Benjamin Everard served in the 1st (Royal) Regiment of Dragoons, beginning with the rank of ensign in 1813, then lieutenant in 1818, captaincy in 1825 (purchased), and finally purchased his rank as major in 1817. Condition: There is a light scratch in the lower left corner. The canvas has not been relined and is in very good condition. | ||
