Bless him. He is doing well. He manages to shave each morning, he has his full dress shako still and he still seems to have his fingers despite a lack of gloves and, even more, his toes despite those thin leather boots. He better do some of that voltigeuring thing rapidly to keep warm! Great photography and scenery. Good find (grin) |

Shush Deadhead – you are seeking to interrupt Napoleonic propaganda. Having said that it is a striking image, beautifully done. |

In those temperatures he ain't going to be letting go of his musket in a hurry… |

Fantastic painting but I doubt anyone involved In the debacle of this retreat would look so good. The musket would be frozen to his hand and his palor would be very very poor. Chris |

What is the purpose of that little section of fence? |

To keep out Cossacks. From that direction. |

My initial thought was that the man had just finished burying a comrade, using a cairn of rocks because the soil was too frozen to dig a grave. That would have been a more satisfying theme IMHO. But it is beautifully done, especially how the modelling blends into what I have to assume is a background painting. |

He's on picquet duty – by the picket fence. If he hadn't have had eaten his horse he'd be on vedette. |

Maybe he froze to death months before? |
