Lt. Col. Gilmore

Cyprus Pioneers
Cyprus Military Police
Greek Recruit

Lt. Col. Gilmore is an Impressionism artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

This British officer turned his hand to watercolours while stationed in Cyprus, showing daily life under colonial rule. His brush captured small scenes like *Cyprus Military Police* and *Greek Recruit*, painted in 1880-81, with quick strokes that feel honest and unposed. Look closer and you’ll spot the dust on boots and the weight of uniforms—details no photograph could catch. Tap *Cyprus Pioneers* next to see how he framed local laborers at work.
