A full-length portrait of Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig, 1st Earl Haig of Ypres (1861โ1928), photographed by Bassano in full dress uniform with baton in hand. The mount is signed by Dorothy, Dowager Countess Haig in 1928 and inscribed to HMS Spey, a P-class sloop of the Royal Navy.
This work reflects both Haigโs enduring legacy and Lady Haigโs tireless commitment to veteransโ welfare after his death. It was acquired by the Rory Lewis Non Profit in 2025 as the first historical piece in the foundationโs archive, now housed at the Rory Lewis Studio in Los Angeles.
