EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Colonel Henry Parke Airey, the esteemed commander of the 1st Bushmens Contingent in the South African Field Force during 1902. The artist behind this remarkable portrait is Kerry & Co. Colonel Airey, born in 1842 and passing away in 1911, was a distinguished military figure who achieved great recognition for his service. Notably, he became the first Australian to be awarded the prestigious Distinguished Service Order (DSO) medal following his valiant efforts in Burma back in 1886. In this striking image, Colonel Airey stands tall and proud donning his vibrant red military uniform adorned with gold braid accents. His face bears a resolute expression beneath an impeccably groomed mustache that adds to his commanding presence. The officer's numerous medals serve as a testament to his bravery and dedication throughout his career. Published by George Newnes of London as part of "Celebrities of the Army" in 1902, this portrait captures not only Colonel Airey's physical appearance but also embodies the spirit and essence of an era marked by warfare and conflict. It serves as a poignant reminder of Australia's contribution to global military endeavors during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The meticulous attention to detail evident within this artwork transports viewers back through time, allowing them to connect with one man's story amidst a larger narrative of courage and sacrifice on behalf of their country.
