Framed Print of Elizabeth Thompson's The Roll Call
Description
A framed reproduction print of the celebrated 1874 painting, The Roll Call, by Elizabeth Thompson (Lady Butler). The horizontal composition depicts a military genre scene, likely referencing the Grenadier Guards during the Crimean War in a winter setting. The artwork features a long line of soldiers in dark uniforms and tall fur shako hats standing on snow-covered ground, with a mounted officer positioned on the far left and a fallen figure lying prone in the foreground. The print is presented under glass and utilizes double matting, consisting of a wide dark gray outer mat and a thin light inner fillet. The piece is housed within a substantial wood frame featuring a dark brown outer profile and a gold-tone inner accent band. A small white inventory sticker bearing the number 6182 is visible near the lower right edge of the frame.
