Summary

[edit]
Description

Offered for sale by Abbott and Holder in January 2020 when it was described as "TIPPING Major Alfred (fl.1850s) 3rd Battalion Grenadier Guards. ‘Grenadiers landing at Portsmouth after (?)’. Pencil, ink, watercolour and gouache on grey/blue paper. Later inscribed verso. 5.5x7.5 inches."

Note: A more correct description of the scene would be the Grenadier Guards leaving the Tower of London in 1854 before embarking from Southampton for Malta, in preparation for the Crimean campaign. Part of one of the outer walls of the Tower, and ships on the Thames, can be seen in the background.
