Description |
English:
Battle of Hanau (30-31 October 1813), took part between Austro-Bavarian forces and French forces. This scene illustrates the attack of the Austro-Bavarian cavalry charging the French Grand Battery. Commanding the French Grand Battery is General Antoine Drouot (depicted on the right side of the painting, with an Austrian cavalryman meaning to strike him down). It also illustrates the French Guard cavalry countercharging the enemy cavalry, with its commander, General Nansouty (illustrated on the left-centre of the painting, with his back to the viewer) directing operations.
