1743 Austrian Decisive Succession Victory Dettingen
EDITORS COMMENTS
This Cig Card print depicts the pivotal moment of the Battle of Dettingen, fought on June 27, 1743. King George II of Great Britain, leading his troops in person, achieved a decisive victory over the French army under the command of Marshal Maurice de Saxe. The battle took place during the War of the Austrian Succession and was a significant turning point in the conflict. The scene unfolds on the European continent, with the British forces, clad in red coats and bearing muskets, advancing towards their French counterparts, who are dressed in blue and brandishing their weapons. The king, wearing a white uniform and mounted on a horse, is prominently displayed at the forefront of the British charge, inspiring his soldiers with courage and determination. The Battle of Dettingen was notable for several reasons, including the personal involvement of the monarch in the fighting and the fact that it was the last time a British monarch led his troops into battle. The victory boosted British morale and strengthened their position in the ongoing war. This intricately detailed Cig Card print, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to relive the events of this historic battle and appreciate the bravery and tenacity of the soldiers who fought in it.
