Description

Caricature of Colonel Lewis Guy Phillips (1831-1887). Caption read "Order at Wimbledon".


Accompanying biographical note in Vanity Fair read "A good cricketer, a wonderful runner, and a marvellous boxer.... Although blessed with a knowledge of modern tongues that would have benefited the Diplomatic Service, he chose the Army as a serious profession.... He is an acute bibliophile.... He has never broken the eleventh commandment, and, possibly for this reason, he has never been married".
