Lieutenant-General Sir William Inglis, 1820 (c)

Miniature, watercolour on ivory, artist unknown, 1820 (c).

Inglis (1764-1835) served in many campaigns across the world but he is best remembered for his command of the 57th (The West Middlesex) Regiment at Albuhera in 1811. Despite being badly wounded, he stayed with the Regimental Colour, encouraging his men with the words 'Die hard 57th, die hard'.
