'Patient Heroes', a Royal Horse Artillery Gun Team in action, 1882.
Oil on canvas by Mrs Elizabeth (later Lady) Butler (1846-1933), 1882.
Although the uniforms and equipment of the gun team are carefully observed, the scene of the action has not been positively identified. As the work was painted in 1882, it is most likely to represent the Egyptian War of that year.
