Originally these trophies-of-arms hung in the Officers’ Mess of the Coldstream Guards, and later formed part of the Forbes collection in the entrance hall of Canon House on the Blanca Trinchera Ranch, Colorado, acquired by Malcolm S. Forbes in 1981. For further information on the Coldstreams and their role at the Battle of Waterloo, please see the note for Lot 50.
