History:
From 1807 to 1812, Napoleon’s armies were engaged in some of the most critical and expansive campaigns of the Napoleonic Wars. The French infantry—the backbone of the Grande Armée—wore shakos and blue coats with white facings, distinguishing them on battlefields across Europe. The period includes major engagements like the battles of Friedland and Wagram, where disciplined French infantry manoeuvres helped secure sweeping victories. Elite grenadier companies, identifiable by their bearskin headgear, often led assaults and formed the core of the Emperor’s most trusted units. This set captures the spirit and precision of French Napoleonic infantry at their peak, ready to march across the continent once more.
