Dr D. Hannema wrote the following concerning the present lot: 'A red hussar, in his dark-blue uniform with red facings, is seen cantering across ground gently sloping up to the right. Beyond are, at different points, three more cavalry-men. On the left, in front of a wood, a squadron resting. The 'Red Hussars' were stationed at The Hague. Breitner made this finished watercolour about 1885.'
