1813 1822 Bayonets Case Cavalry Despatch Hussar Napoleonic Uhlan
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the essence of German cavalry units during the Napoleonic Wars, featuring an Uhlan to the left, a Cavalry soldier in the center, and a Hussar to the right. Dated between 1813 and 1822, this image showcases the distinctive uniforms and weaponry of these elite military forces. The Uhlan, depicted on the left, is dressed in the traditional blue-gray tunic with red lapels and white facings, adorned with gold lace and silver buttons. His shabraque, a decorative cloth covering the saddle, bears the royal monogram of King Frederick William III of Prussia. The Uhlan carries a lance with a pennon and a sabre, while his horse is equipped with a pair of holsters for pistols. In the center, the Cavalry soldier wears a dark blue tunic with red collar and cuffs, along with a white waistcoat and black breeches. His helmet features a distinctive crest, and he is armed with a carbine and a bayonet. His horse is also outfitted with a saddle cover and a pair of holsters. On the right, the Hussar stands out with his unique attire, including a short, dark jacket, white breeches, and a red sash. His shabraque is adorned with gold fringes and tassels, and he carries a curved sabre and a pair of pistols. His horse, too, is bedecked with decorative accents, including a plumed helmet and a pair of jingling spurs. This print offers a fascinating glimpse into the military culture of the time, with each soldier's uniform and equipment reflecting their individual unit and national pride. The bayonets at the ready suggest that these soldiers were prepared for battle, adding to the sense of tension and excitement in the image.
