Oil on canvas study entitled ‘Returning Home’ of ‘Home Again’ by Henry Nelson O’Neill, 1858
This appears to relate to ‘Home Again’ 1858.
The two models appear in the finished picture, but not in juxtaposition with each other. In the larger canvas the injured Sergeant is being helped down the gangplank, as he returns from India. She meanwhile features in the same pose, although dressed all in black, gazing up at a grey bearded Scots Guard.
