Uniform van Engelse huzaar 1795 - 1796

This watercolor drawing by S.G. Casten, created between 1795 and 1796, depicts a mounted English hussar. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the rendering of the soldier's uniform, including the elaborate hat with plume and the fur-trimmed jacket. The horse, with its intricate bridling, is also carefully observed, adding to the overall sense of realism. This artwork, a fine example of military portraiture, offers a glimpse into the fashion and military practices of the late 18th century.
