Taking Leave of the Fusilier Guards

From my old paper collection, a hand tinted engraving from 1857
Titled. "Her Majesty taking leave of the Fusilier Guards previous to their departure to the East"
The image depicts the Scots Fusilier Guards at Buckingham Palace on 28 February 1854 prior to their embarkation for Crimea during the Crimean War (1853 - 1856)
Engraving by Thomas Sherratt (1812 - 1880)
