Cavalry unit.
The rider folds forward over a moving grey horse, making this one of the more unsettling Del Prado command figures. It depicts Auguste de Caulaincourt, whose death belongs to the struggle for Borodino’s great redoubt.
A red jacket stands out sharply above a pale grey horse. This Del Prado hussar officer is identified through Kellermann’s command, a useful connection that also requires care with a famous family name.
Pale braid spreads across this hussar’s dark uniform, giving the torso a decorative rhythm. The brown horse and upright seat keep the Del Prado figure readable as a study of clothing and equipment.
The green coat and compact mounted pose make this Del Prado chasseur easy to confuse with a guardsman. The reference identifies a French chasseur à cheval of 1805 without assigning him to the Imperial Guard.
A red plume, contrasting braid and a lowered head give this Russian trumpeter a distinctive appearance. The Del Prado reference identifies the regiment as Jitomir, another spelling of Zhitomir or Zhytomyr.
Dark clothing, a tall plume and a yellow saddle covering give this British light dragoon an identity distinct from the red-coated heavy cavalry. The 1795 date belongs to the Revolutionary wars, before Waterloo’s familiar uniforms.
Two large drums transform the outline of this mounted Mameluke. The pale horse, patterned drum coverings and raised sticks give the Del Prado figure a ceremonial character that stands apart from sabre-wielding cavalry.
A red coat, pale breeches and a dark crested helmet give this Danish dragoon a striking profile. His 1813 setting leads away from the usual French and British cavalry subjects and into Schleswig-Holstein.
The tall blue standard is the centre of this Del Prado composition. A red-coated rider and moving brown horse support it, turning a single mounted figure into a natural focal point for a cavalry display.
A long lance and dark mounted uniform give this Prussian officer a strong vertical outline. The reference photograph shows the figure in its blister, which also makes packaging part of the identification record.
