Infantry Regiments were the backbone of the French Army during the XIX century. On those days, their organization, uniforms, and equipment served as an inspiration to other nations, which implemented many of these elements on their armies.
During the Franco-Prussian War, Napoleon III tried to recreate the glory of the former Empire, and the arrangement of the Army and his Imperial Guard was a big part of it.
This classic figure From Elite Miniatures is dressed in the uniform of a French infantry officer and captures perfectly the classic elegance of the typical officer of those days.
