Painting depicting a soldier from the grenadier company and an officer of the same regiment. Given the date when the painting was created, 1772 or 1773, as well as the facings, lace and hats, it appears that the two men are from the 62nd Regiment of Foot.

Depiction of the 62nd Regiment at the Battle of Ferozeshah in December 1845 by Henry Martens. The picture shows the 62nd, based on the buff colour of the flag and of the facings of the British regulars shown, in action, most likely on the second day. The figures in the foreground are most likely members of the regiment's light company.
