I have been searching for details on the 26eme Leger and all other Leger and Ligne regiments. I was able to find two small pictures of a much larger painting depicting what looks like a field hospital at the Battle of Wagram. The picture looks like a first hand account of the battle and shows both ligne and leger soldiers. I found some details on the 26eme Leger and looking for the whole painting. I have seen the painting once before, but have not been able to find it lately. Any help would be great. Here is a detail of a wounded grenadier [URL=http://s1364.photobucket.com/user/Boomerlc23/media/140709111830737599_zpsmphhhozx.jpg.html]

I suspect you have us foxed. I have searched high and low. Very nice artwork, I particularly like the young woman (it was ever thus and my downfall) in profile. Where did you find these fragments? It might be a start to further search. What I have learnt is about Massena's coach and four at Wagram. Now there is a topic for a model, although no data other than four white horses, one postilion and one coachman |

Well after typing in every leger regiment from 20-30 plus Wagram as the search word I found out it was 25e Leger at Wagram and here is the full painting. [URL=http://s1364.photobucket.com/user/Boomerlc23/media/click-4325377%204_zps1amqsemn.jpg.html]

Nice one. Google let me down. Actually I was too vague with search terms! So that is a 25 in the top picture. |

I am not sure if it is Massena's corps or Oudinot division due to all different regiments being together. |
