Toy Soldiers at Nunnington

Number Two in an occasional series of pictures of old toy soldiers taken at National Trust places
These were on display at the charming Nunnington Hall in Yorkshire



There wasn't any context or explanation for these unlike the ones in the huge collection at Wallington that featured in my first such post.
But I saw 'em and snapped 'em and here they are. Highlanders in red coats kneeling to take a charge by the looks of things.

  2. At first glance I thought your painting had gone up a notch! But seriously I am glad that there has always been a part of us that wants to play with toy soldiers!
