Photograph of Lt George Colborne Nugent (sitting) and 2/Lt Ernest Frederick Orby Gascoigne (kneeling) as they either act or play around in a large garden, probably Nugent’s family estate at West Harling, Norfolk, 1896 (c). Both are in the 3rd Battalion, Grenadier Guards. Nugent is wearing a paper hat and eye patch and sits with his legs outstretched and a cane over them. Gascoigne holds a handkerchief to one eye and has his arm around Nugent’s shoulders. From an album of 99 photographs compiled by or presented to Captain (later Brig-Gen) Ernest Frederick Orby Gascoigne. The album is entitled: ‘Personal album E F O Gascoigne. 1st & 3rd Battalions - 1894-1905’, but covers the period 1892-1905; taken in England and Gibraltar.
