Framed Print of Seasonable Compliment: Crowning The Hero, 1881. Creator: William James Palmer
Seasonable Compliment: Crowning The Hero, 1881. "A Seasonable Compliment, " indeed, when the gallant Major has come home from the recent campaigns in Afghanistan, with his share of military honour for good service in the field, is the graceful act of these young ladies at the Christmas party, where he appears a very gentlemanly "Lion."...it may still be the personal opinion of many of the fair sex...that all officers of the Army and Navy...are entitled...to a larger share of feminine regard than their brothers in the civil professions...few sensible men, who do not happen to wear the Queen's uniform, will entertain the slightest jealousy of those social attentions which are commonly bestowed on those who do...we seldom or never meet with an Englishman, of any commissioned rank in the Army, whose behaviour shows any disposition to claim an undue degree of importance in society upon this account. In general, they bear so modestly the distinctions which they have so fairly earned in the public service...that nobody would or could be inclined to grudge a newly-promoted V.C. or C.B. or one who has simply been "mentioned in despatches, " such an agreeable private token of esteem as we see here conferred upon the hero of a drawing-room reception'.
