~~Video Description~~

What's in a painting? Well as it turns out, an awful lot! Even just a single piece of artwork can provide us with all sorts of amazing insights into history. So in this video, I thought I'd explore one of my favourites, portraying the 25th Regiment of Foot (and others) on the island of Menorca!
