1st Punjab Infantry - Jemadar by Simkin, 1897
This figure is based on
the photo of a Pathan(notice the cone coming out of the
turban, this was because he had cut hair, the turban had
a tendency to fall, to prevent this they tied a cone that
strapped to the head, and then tie the turban). The piping
round the shoulder strap, collar and cuff are red although
due to a misprint on the original lithograph, they appear
as white here. The turban is pale blue and green with gold
stripes.
