FAMOUS BAND - BEARSKINS AND SCARLET TUNICS, AT WINDSOR GUARDS POLO CLUB
I have turned out some photos taken in 2006 at the Cartier Gold Cup polo, in Windsor Great Park, Berkshire. The photos are on a CD, because in those days I had no digital camera.
I am planning a new painting, hopefully using these old images and a sketch.
The marching band of the Irish Guards, resplendent in scarlet tunics and bearskins, are in some of the photos.
I think they are the Irish Guards, because from the website (link below), regarding Guards uniforms:
The Official Website of the British Monarchy
I read that the Irish Guards have a blue plume on the bearskin worn on the right side.
