Lot description
An electrifying original gouache painting created for Osprey Publishing's Men-at-Arms series, this vivid historical illustration captures three striking figures from the English Civil War in dramatic full color: a seated musketeer in bright orange doublet, tankard in hand and musket at his side; a resolute pikeman in gleaming armor standing before his steed; and an armored cavalryman astride his horse, lance held high. The detailed composition, rich with character and atmosphere, showcases the discipline and diversity of 17th-century military ranks, set against the backdrop of a rustic English village. Though unsigned, the quality unmistakably reflects the hand of master illustrator Angus McBride, renowned for his historical and military artwork for Osprey. A rare and museum-worthy piece for collectors of historical militaria art. The piece retains the original publisher's sticker on verso. Artist: Angus McBride (British 1931-2007) Issued: c. 1980 Dimensions: 19.50"L x 25"H Country of Origin: England
