EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite miniature watercolour on ivory portrays a bust portrait of a brave First World War Officer of the East Surrey Regiment. The intricately detailed painting captures the solemn and resolute expression of the soldier, who served in one of the 1st Great Military Regiments during the devastating conflict. The oval locket mount adds an elegant and timeless frame to the portrait, making it a precious keepsake from the past. The painting, executed in the English School style, showcases the exceptional skill and artistry of the artist. The ivory background provides a subtle contrast to the vibrant watercolour tones, highlighting the intricacies of the uniform and the officer's features. The portrait is inscribed on the back with the name "Keith Barratt," adding a personal touch to the piece. The East Surrey Regiment, also known as the "Queen's Royal Regiment (West Surrey)," was a renowned infantry regiment of the British Army that saw action in both World War I and II. The regiment's history is rich with valor and sacrifice, making this miniature watercolour a significant historical artifact. The miniature painting genre gained popularity during the Victorian era as a means of creating portable, personal portraits. This unique piece not only serves as a testament to the bravery and dedication of the East Surrey Regiment officer but also as a reminder of the human stories behind the larger historical narrative of the First World War.
