The regiment depicted on the present plate was originally formed in 1704, under the name Porte's dragoon regiment. In 1708 the regiment was named Nevskii Dragoon. It was reformed in 1733 as the Life Cuirassier regiment. Between 1831 and 1855 it is referred to as the Life Cuirassier regiment of His Majesty the Heir Tsesarevich, and in 1856 it finally became known as the Cuirassier Guards of Her Majesty.
