JAMES WARREN CHILDE (1778-1862)
PORTRAIT OF AN OFFICER
Seated, long half length, wearing uniform, signed and inscribed 39 Bedford St Strand, watercolour
20.5 x 18.5cm.
* Childe gave this as his address from 1837 onwards. We are very grateful to Christopher Bryant who suggests that this is an officer of the light company of either a regiment of the line (i.e. British regular army, possibly 30th or 32nd) or the Honourable East India Company, c.1835-1842.
