Summary

Artist
Butterworth & Heath, after Thomas Jones Barker
Description
English: Thomas Jones Barker, Return Through the Valley of Death, exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1876; engraving by Butterworth & Heath 1878, for The Art Journal; critic James Dafforne described the painting as "representing Lord George Paget, with his brave companions of the 11th Hussars and 4th Light Dragoons, about seventy men out of the 'gallant six hundred,' forcing their way through the forest of Russian lances which vainly interposed to bar their way. Here is none of the confusion of the battle-field; except for the dead bodies lying around, we might almost fancy we were looking on a charge at a review; we believe that every soldier here introduced is a portrait: the picture was painted under supervision of Lord George himself, so that the work has national historic interest, being in every respect trustworthy."
