The Battle of Eylau 8th February 1807, by Adolphe Roehn. Outnumbered, Napoleon almost lost this battle, the winter weather was appalling but for the superb Cavalry Charge led by Prince Murat, halted the Russian advance. This gave time for the French reserves to arrive. The battle ended up in a draw, the horrors of war are depicted in his painting of the battle in which 35,000 men fell. Napoleon orders prisoners to receive medical attention as Murat looks on, dressed in one of his flamboyant uniforms. |
