After the Napoleonic Wars, the French artillery arm had been thoroughly modernised and reorganised under the Valée system, which reduced the number of different types of guns, and organised them into distinct groups for field and siege use.
The most common French field piece was the 12-pounder, and these reliable, versatile guns would be used to good effect throughout the Crimean War in support of French troops.
