Paintings of Sikh armyofficers were popular. This was due to the fact that the Sikh feudals,emotionally flattered by their victories, cherished to be glorified.This painting shows a cadre of the 15th Bengal Native Infantry. It is aprototype of a Sikh from Ludhiana, with a massive turban, red and yellowstriped, as part of the uniform. The moustaches are curled up and the beardis uncut and rolled up next to the jaw line. He wears a red coat with greenfront and trimmings. A belt tightens at the waist. On the left side of thechest hang the decorations, accorded a place of pride. A red sash seems fromthere, across his body and towards the back. He wears loose black trousers,tucked in boots. Attached to his uniform are two straps to hold the sheathof the sword that he holds. Lightly held in his left hand is the hilt of thesword, but the artist has made the lower part of the sword sheath look likea baton.The lines of the portrait are clear cut and the colours used are basic red,green and black. The officer regally stands alone, with no need for abackground. |
