42nd Regiment of Foot VS. Cilley's "Picked" Men
Battle of Monmouth, New Jersey
June 28, 1778
By Mark Maritato
This painting was commissioned by the Monmouth battlefield Park in New Jersey for the 2013 relaunch of their newly remodeled visitors center as one of 7 Paintings done specifically for that project. This painting focuses on the 42nd Foot (Royal Highland Regiment) Fighting against Cilley's Picked men. This scene depicted here is the final Charge of Cilley's men after they had chased the Highlanders out of the Suftin Orchard and down the slope of the hill. The Highlanders made a final stand in the swampy ground near Spotswood Middle Branch Creek. The fight ended with the Highlanders finally breaking off and retreating across the creek. The Soldiers of the 42nd Foot shown in the painting are from the light infantry company so they are shown with no shoulder adornments.
