Description
  • The central foreground figure with scarlet trouser stripe and sash and a chapeau is recognized as a General of Artillery in full dress. As shown by the single white star on forearm and epaulettes, he has the rank of Brigadier-General. The aiguillettes hanging on the right breast and arm of all these men show that they are General Staff Officers. The officer in the left foreground with yellow trouser stripe is a Lieutenant-Colonel of Cavalry, his rank being indicated by the four-fold stripe of the Austrian knot on forearm. The Lieutenant-Colonel wears a silver leaf on shoulder. The star on forearm has a brass center and is not the solid white star of the Brigadier-General. The second officer from the left, as shown by buff stripe on trousers, coat and hat band, is a Lieutenant-Colonel of the four-fold Austrian knot. The left officer of the two men in the background, as shown by his orange corps colors, is the Major of the Signal Corps. He, also, has a gold leaf on the shoulder knot, indicating the rank of Major. The man on the right coming down with him, with black and crimson trimmings on coat and hat, also two-stripe Austrian knot, is a Captain of Ordnance. The Captain also wears two bars on his shoulder knot. The officer in the right foreground, coming down the steps, as shown by the white trouser stripe, also, collar and cap trimmings, and two-stripe Austrian knot, is a Captain of Infantry. The officer on the extreme right with scarlet and white trouser stripes, coat and hat trimmings and two-fold Austrian knot, is a Captain of Engineers.
