Title: Historical Battles Painting Thread
Post by: The Mighty McLovin on June 05, 2015, 09:18:30 pm
I have found many painting threads of the Napoleonic Wars, but cease to find a one dedicated to battles. So I thought to myself: why not create one?

Please include names of the battles if you can. Also, I have a missing name for one of them. If you know what the battle names are then please tell me and I'll replace them.

Two large high res pictures of Lady Butler's famour painting depicting the 28th Foot at the battle of Quatre Bras. On a side note as some might point out the 28th actuelly retained their stopepipe shakos throughout the 100 days campaign instead of adopting the Belgic Shako like the rest of the army as depicted.

Its recommended you open these pictures in a new tab.

The one you called battle of dennewitz shows probably the "battle" of Hagelberg

Not really a battle, but I like this image. It shows Napoleon's return from his exile in Elba.
