Lieutenant Philip John Bainbrigge (1817-1881)

Bainbrigge, who entered the army as a lieutenant in the Royal Engineers, was posted to Canada during the Rebellion of 1837-8. He sketched on his Canadian tour of duty (1837-1840s), and was in Quebec in 1837 and in Ontario (see lot 117) in 1840-41. Library and Archives Canada have a large collection of his Canadian sketches.
