"The Guards at Inkerman" is a renowned oil painting by Scottish artist Robert Gibb, completed in 1893. This historical work of art depicts a significant episode from the Battle of Inkerman, which was a part of the Crimean War, fought on November 5, 1854. The painting portrays the British Grenadier Guards in the heat of battle, engaged in close combat with Russian forces during a critical moment in the war.

Gibb's composition captures the intensity and chaos of the battle, with a focus on the valor and resilience of the British soldiers. The Grenadier Guards, recognizable by their distinctive bearskin caps, are shown standing firm against the Russian onslaught, amidst the rugged terrain and the obscured visibility due to the heavy fog that characterized the day of the battle.

The Battle of Inkerman has often been referred to as the "Soldiers' Battle" due to the significant role played by infantrymen and the confused, hand-to-hand nature of the fighting. Gibb's painting is celebrated for its historical accuracy, attention to detail, and its evocative representation of the bravery of the Guardsmen. It serves as a tribute to the British infantry and is an important visual document of British military history.

"The Guards at Inkerman" is held in high esteem and is part of the collection of the National War Museum of Scotland, located in Edinburgh Castle. The painting is a key exhibit and is instrumental in educating visitors about the Crimean War and the heroism of the British troops involved. Robert Gibb's work remains a significant contribution to the genre of military art and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic merit and historical significance.
