The upright tool beside this dark-uniformed figure makes him a useful change from the usual musket-bearing soldier. The dealer identifies him as an Imperial artillery engineer, a support subject that rewards careful labeling.
Dark clothing, white trousers and a straightforward standing pose make this flanker easy to overlook beside an eagle bearer. His subject is valuable precisely because the Imperial Guard contained much more than its famous veteran grenadiers.
A dark uniform and bicorne give this 1805 artilleryman a simple, recognisable outline. Del Prado’s standing gunner is useful for collectors who want the people around a battery as well as the guns themselves.
The small barrel and colourful clothing make this cantinière one of the most distinctive foot figures in the Del Prado range. She adds the provision of everyday supplies to a shelf of soldiers and officers.
Del Prado’s standing Berthier brings the army’s headquarters onto the shelf. The decorated dark coat and small hand-held object give this marshal a different presence from the more theatrical cavalry commanders.
This standing driver represents the work that kept artillery moving. His quiet pose makes a useful companion to gunners and commanders, adding transport to a collection usually dominated by weapons and combat uniforms.
A bicorne, dark coat and restrained gesture make this standing Napoleon immediately readable. The figure provides a compact focal point for a Del Prado command group without the larger footprint of a mounted portrait.
This grenadier captain belongs to the Consular Guard, placing him before Napoleon’s imperial title. The tall headgear and pale uniform front anticipate a familiar Guard appearance while the date tells a different political story.
The flag gives this Del Prado Guard figure a broad silhouette above an otherwise narrow standing pose. It is a miniature about the visible identity of a regiment as much as the uniform of one soldier.
White clothing, dark headgear and a long musket give this voltigeur a deceptively formal appearance. Del Prado’s standing figure opens a useful window onto the light infantry work inside Napoleon’s armies.
