Title Sepia photo of Austrian Hussars
Nationality British
Period c 1880-90
Price £40.00

This sepia photograph, pasted on a card page torn from a British military album, shows a KuK Hussar regiment on parade. There are officers and trumpeters in front, with the bulk of the regiment in double files behind. The caption in English underneath simply says 'Austrian Hussars'.

The photograph measures 22 x 17cm. There is some buckling and shrinkage of the card backing and the left hand side of the photo has minor abrasion damge to the detail. The overall colour is a somewhat yellowed sepia.

The helmet arrived the day before yesterday and I had a look at it today and everything looks perfect. You packed it up very well indeed. ... I've never seen him so thrilled with a gift!
