EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print depicts a pivotal moment in the War of the Austrian Succession (1740-1748): the Battle of Dettingen on June 27, 1743. In this engagement, King George II of England (r. 1727-1760) led his forces into battle against a much larger French army, marking the last time a reigning English monarch personally commanded his troops on the battlefield. George II, dressed in full military regalia, is shown riding forward at the head of his men, inspiring courage and determination. The king's successful leadership in this battle not only secured a significant victory for the Allied forces but also bolstered his reputation as a capable military leader. The Battle of Dettingen took place near the town of Dettingen an der Donau in present-day Germany. The French, led by the Maréchal de Maillebois, had invaded the Austrian territories in support of their claims to the Austrian succession. However, the English, along with their Austrian and Hanoverian allies, managed to turn the tide of the battle, inflicting heavy losses on the French and forcing them to retreat. This print is an important reminder of the significant role King George II played in the history of England and Europe during his reign. His personal involvement in the Battle of Dettingen underscores his commitment to defending his interests and those of his allies, making it a crucial event in the War of the Austrian Succession and the broader context of European power struggles during the 18th century.
