Two Officers and a Private of the West India Regiment watching an exercise at St Ann's Garrison, Barbados, 1886

Watercolour by an unknown artist, 1886.

The two mounted officers wear tropical dress while the private is dressed in the French 'Zouave' style uniform of the regiment. In the background, rows of infantrymen lie flat on the ground in a training exercise. The garrison buildings are visible beyond. The former military prison of St Ann's Garrison became the museum of Barbados in the 1930s, but St Ann's Fort is still used by the Barbados Defence Force.
