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\u003eThis advancing French infantryman carries his musket and bayonet across his body at port arms. He represents Napoleon’s 3rd Regiment of Line Infantry and complements the figure advancing with his musket levelled.\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. A supporting rank, a defender or a nearby casualty can make the stakes of the scene immediately understandable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCollectors can build outward from this piece with Napoleonic infantry, officers, mounted men and standard bearers, letting each addition contribute a different aspect of the setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe piece also invites an appreciation of the movement, uniform traditions and command of the period.
