what color were carriages, caissons and limbers painted for the Danes snd Schleswig Holstein artillery during the 1848 War? I am assuming they were the same color unless the Schleswig-Holsteiners were using German pieces. I have seen what appears to be gray/blue with black metal fittings but can't be for certain. Any help is appreciated!

I concur after consulting my books and plates, both used the Danish guns, painted a light gray-blue color.
