In 1973, Paul Maze and the Guards at Wildenstein & Co London was a one-man show of 136 works devoted to Maze's depictions of military pageantry. General Sir Michael Gow, then Brigadier of the Scots Guards, wrote in the Foreword to the catalogue:

"I have heard it said that only a soldier or an artist can really appreciated the true significance of a military parade. The soldier sees corporate discipline and crisp response to the world of command, ranks perfectly aligned, men moving as one... The artist sees colours, movements and stillness, lines and curves as the troops manoeuvre. He hears the wail of the pipes and staccato drum beats and transmits these sounds to his canvas..Paul Maze, however, is in a unique situation because he is an artist and a soldier, both of rare distinction, and therefore combines in himself and his work the faculties of appreciation which I have described...His knowledge of the Household Troops stems not only from what he saw and shared with them, but also from an intimate association in their ceremonial role between the two wars and since. It is the knowledge of the soldier and the artist; and his understanding and deep affection stand out with startling vividness in his paintings."
