This is the Signed unique original Gouache painting by Angus McBride.

On the 1st August each year, every officer and soldier in the Princess of Wales's Royal Regiment wears a 'Minden' rose in his headdress in memory of the men of the 37th who, either before or after the Battle, picked red dog-roses from the hedges and put them in their caps.

This tradition was inherited from The Royal Hampshire Regiment and commemorates a great and somewhat unexpected victory over French cavalry during the Seven Year War.

Publication not determined but probably Treasure about 1970.
