The Earl of Lucan by Carlo Pellegrini, 1881.
Raglan blamed Lucan for the loss, "you have lost the light brigade", and censured him in dispatches; Although Lucan complained against this censure, as the relationship between the army commander and the cavalry commander had clearly broken down, he was recalled to England, where he returned at the beginning of March 1855.
On his arrival Lucan's demand for a court martial was declined and instead he defended himself with a speech to the House of Lords on 19 March, blaming Raglan and his deceased aide-de-camp Captain Louis Nolan.
