Fine, detailed pencil drawing of a mounted officer from the Caucasus Line Cossack Host. Apparently drawn in Milan, it is strongly reminiscent of the military plates published in Vienna by Matthäus Trentsenskiy, or the costume drawings of François Hippolyte Lalaisse. The Caucasus Linear Cossack Army was established in 1832 in the Northern Caucasus. Along with the Black Sea Cossack army it defended the Caucasus fortified line from the mouth of the Terek River to the mouth of the Kuban. Вy 1860, following the end of the Caucasus War, it had divided into the Kuban and Terek troops.
