Queen's Own Royal Regiment of Highlanders

The 105th Regiment of Foot (Queen's Own Royal Regiment of Highlanders) was a short-lived British line infantry regiment.It was raised in Perthshire by Major-General David Graeme as a two-battalion regiment on 15 October 1760 by converting independent companies.[1] It was named after Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, who had been selected as the wife for the future George III of Great Britain.The regiment served in Ireland and was disbanded in 1763.[2] Regimental titles in italics indicate they were disbanded or renumbered before 1881.

Actually, when the painting was made (1765–66), the regiment had already been disbanded; Gordon, then on half-pay, evidently kept the uniform and had it with him when visiting Rome , where he met Batoni.
