"Ross Lewis Mangles (1833-1905) Saving a Wounded Soldier of the 37th Regiment During the Indian Mutiny of 1857" is an oil painting by Chevalier Louis-William Desanges, a 19th-century British artist known for his depictions of Victorian military heroes. The artwork commemorates the valor of Ross Lewis Mangles, the first civilian to be awarded the Victoria Cross, Britain's highest military honor for gallantry. The painting captures the dramatic moment during the Indian Rebellion of 1857, also known as the Indian Mutiny, when Mangles, an employee of the East India Company, rescued a wounded comrade under harrowing circumstances.

The painting is part of a series commissioned by the Junior United Service Club, which aimed to portray acts of bravery that led to the awarding of the Victoria Cross. Desanges' work is characterized by its detailed realism and emotional intensity, which serves to highlight the heroism and human struggle during the conflict. The artwork not only serves as a historical record but also as a tribute to the courage displayed by individuals such as Mangles in the face of overwhelming adversity.

The Indian Mutiny was a pivotal event in British-Indian history, leading to significant changes in the governance of India and the eventual establishment of the British Raj. Mangles' act of bravery, as depicted in Desanges' painting, offers a personal narrative within the larger context of the rebellion, providing insight into the individual acts of valor that contributed to the British military ethos of the time. The painting is an important cultural artifact that reflects the Victorian era's attitudes towards heroism, empire, and military conduct."
