This print captures a momentous occasion in history - the departure of the 1st Battalion, Scots Guards from England to Germany in 1958. As they march past Windsor Castle en route to the railway station, the soldiers exude a sense of pride and determination. The streets are lined with onlookers as cars are parked along the parade route, showcasing a mix of old-world charm and modern convenience.
