Hans Christian Hyllested

Hans Christian Hyllested was a Danish drawing artist and military man.

Hyllested served as a lieutenant in the Danish Army and later in Hamburg. In addition to his service, he was a skilled draftsman and depicted Danish soldiers and sailors in a variety of poses, singly or in groups, on foot or on horseback, often against colorful backgrounds. Particularly notable among these are depictions of the uniforms of colonial troops. Hyllested's drawings, as a set of 115 hand-colored lithographs, were published in The Complete Collection of Naval and Danish Uniforms (1829).
