Thrusting Upwards, a King \u0026amp; Country miniature depicting a distinctive part of this historical collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSituated in the Napoleonic Wars and the armies that fought them, the piece rewards attention to the people and events around it. Napoleonic battlefields depended on disciplined infantry, cavalry, standards and officers directing movement under pressure. Each formation had its own identity and role within the larger army.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrench line infantry made up an important part of Napoleon’s field armies. The designation F.L.I. Thrusting Upwards identifies a particular action or duty, enabling collectors to build a firing line, movement sequence or formation in which different soldiers have recognisable roles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe action-oriented pose conveys the pressure and movement of a close encounter. The direction of the body and the implied opponent help define the instant being portrayed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn engaging way to present it is within a Napoleonic firing line, cavalry charge or field headquarters. The setting makes the period easy to understand and gives the subject a natural place in the scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a more effective composition, give the figure room to move visually.

It is a useful reminder that a historical scene can be told through an individual detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether displayed alone or built into a larger diorama, it offers an approachable way to add a fresh moment to the collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow available from The Military Workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"King \u0026 Country","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53419520950554,"sku":"NA522","price":79.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/0154\/0890\/files\/NA522.jpg?v=1794305160","url":"https:\/\/themilitaryworkshop.com\/products\/na522","provider":"The Military Workshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
