The Coldstream Guards, A Parade in Drill Order, 1905 (c)

Oil on board by Henry Joseph 'Harry' Payne (1858-1927), 1905 (c).

A senior officer inspecting a line of guardsmen. The Coldstream Guards are the oldest regiment in the Army having been in continuous service since 1650 when they were established at Coldstream on the Scottish border. Despite this the regiment is ranked second in the order of precedence, behind the Grenadier Guards. This is because the Grenadier Guards have served the Crown for a longer period.
