Do you think real photographies of Napoleonic Wars veterans exist ?
Answer is yes , it's besides interesting to see those braves in their real uniform but there is a small trick...

Très interessant et émouvant. La seule photo que je connais est celle de Coignet.

Incredible! Merci.
No wonder so many thought war romantic back then. Even up to the ACW that view was held, butI think the ACW put an end to that, though.
Minie ball, meet gallant uniforms.

Remarquable !
Effectivement, le romantisme de l'époque associé à la légende napoléonnienne donne un résultat bluffant.
Bravo à ceux qui nt exhumé ces photos !
