"Chobham Camp, 1853" is a notable painting by the British artist Edward Matthew Ward, created in the mid-19th century. Edward Matthew Ward (1816–1879) was a prominent Victorian painter known for his historical and genre scenes, often capturing significant moments and figures from British history with a keen eye for detail and narrative.

The painting depicts the Chobham Camp, which was a temporary military encampment established in 1853 on Chobham Common in Surrey, England. This camp was significant as it was the first large-scale military exercise conducted by the British Army since the Napoleonic Wars. The event was organized to demonstrate the strength and readiness of the British military forces during a period of heightened international tensions, particularly with Russia, which would soon escalate into the Crimean War (1853–1856).

Ward's "Chobham Camp, 1853" captures the bustling activity and the diverse array of military personnel and equipment assembled for the exercises. The painting is noted for its meticulous attention to detail, from the uniforms of the soldiers to the various tents and artillery pieces scattered across the landscape. Ward's composition not only highlights the military precision and organization but also provides a glimpse into the social aspects of the camp, including interactions among soldiers and the presence of onlookers and dignitaries.

The artwork serves as a historical document, offering insights into mid-19th century military practices and the socio-political climate of the time. It reflects Ward's ability to blend historical accuracy with artistic expression, making it a valuable piece for both art historians and those interested in military history. "Chobham Camp, 1853" remains an important work within Ward's oeuvre, exemplifying his skill in capturing the essence of historical events through his art.
