This book presents lost images of Napoleon's Army, all based on the remarkable portraits by two artists during the two-month armistice of 1813. What these young illustrators witnessed and recorded that summer in Saxony was the assembly of Napoleon's Last Grande Armee, a vast and colorful multifunctional force that included French, Dutch, Poles and Italians.
