New Dresses for the Artillery, 1854. Creator: Unknown

New Dresses for the Artillery, 1854. British army uniform:..new costumes of the Artillery, the Hussars, and the Rifles...designed by the firm of Hamburger, Rogers, and Co...Henceforward the dress of the Royal Horse Artillery will be unencumbered by a profusion of lace - very expensive, and at the same time useless...For full-dress, a rich gold lace shoulder-belt, with an embroidered pouch; having the arms worked in gold upon it, a wreath of gold laurel on the sides; and a motto underneath, edged with gold lace. The ordinary head-dress will be continued...In future, the Foot Artillery will wear a tunic, with little lace; a helmet of black felt, with the Royal Arms and a gun in front, figured brass ornaments; and a white horsehair Dragoon plume for full-dress, will be substituted for the Albert cap...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
