The Battle of Moravian Town or of the Thames is a battle of the War of 1812 between Great Britain and the USA.
This is also the last painting of Don Troiani of which there are 35 copies available for $ 750, signed and numbered of course.

Very nice depiction. Troiani does such detailed and usually accurate battle scenes of the War of 1812.

Hmm, I wonder if the 41st actually had their new Belgic shakos as shown?

Thanks Armand.

Rule Number one for British Infantry Do not oppose cavalry ina singleopen line.

Proctor thought it was more important to cover the frontage of the field rather then concentrate Not unexpectedly the Indians under Tecumseh fought from cover and lasted a while loner However a battle where one side(US) outnumbers the other(GB) at over 5 to 1 should never have been fought
