DescriptionFour of the soldiers are mounted on brown horses. The soldiers carry standards and wear swords at their sides. Each horse stands on a green flat base with one front and one back leg up as if trotting. The fifth soldier, blowing a bugle, is mounted on a white horse also with raised legs mounted to a green base. The figures wear red and navy jackets with gold braid over light blue pants with a yellow stripe down the leg. They all wear red and gold tall hats with a white plume.
