The War of Austrian Succession was a significant conflict that took place in the mid-18th century. One of the notable battles during this war was the Battle of Fontenoy, which occurred on 11th May 1745. Marshal Maurice de Saxe led the French forces against their opponents. An engraving from 1828 depicts this intense battle, showcasing the bravery and determination of both sides. In another depiction of the Battle of Fontenoy, Chevalier de Belle-Isle can be seen wounded in his right arm but still pushing forward towards the parapet. This image captures the unwavering spirit and resilience displayed by soldiers during this tumultuous time. The Battle of Dettingen, which lasted from 16th to 27th June 1743, is also worth mentioning. A view engraved by I showcases this glorious action where troops fought valiantly for victory. Louis XV, King of France from 1710 to 1774, played a crucial role in leading his army at the Battle of Fontenoy. His presence and leadership are depicted in an engraving capturing him amidst the chaos and intensity of warfare. An allegorical painting titled "An Allegory of Treaty Aix-la-Chapelle" portrays one outcome resulting from these conflicts - peace negotiations between warring nations after years filled with bloodshed and destruction. Frederick II "the Great, " King of Prussia from 1740 to 1786, also participated actively in these events as he sought to expand his kingdom's influence during this turbulent period. George II, who reigned as King during these times, is depicted at both The Battle Of Dettingen and Hohenfriedberg. These images serve as reminders that even monarchs were not immune to being directly involved in military engagements.
