Photograph of four soldiers from the Coldstream Guards who served in the Anglo-Egyptian War. Colour Sergeant Harris is sitting on a chair facing partly left. Standing from left to right behind him are Colour Sergeant Turner, Colour Sergeant Milne and Colour Sergeant Hill. They are wearing a variety of military uniforms and are holding rifles. There is a brick wall behind.

The Anglo-Egyptian War of 1882 repressed the nationalist ‘Urabi Revolt and led to increased British control of Egypt.
