Wonderful brushwork. It's nice to see the big regiments. |

Great work and thanks for the detailed dig on who exactly those French were in Barry Lyndon – love the look of your "big battalions" |

Beautiful painting and a great spectacle- you should be proud Arteis. It is almost like looking at the Barry Lyndon scene. BTW I once recall reading in a French journal, that the real Royal-Cravates (cavalry as you rightly observe) was heavily recruited with Irishmen in the mid c18th. |

What is the source, the Regiment Royal Cravates Cavalerie's control registry doesn't reflect at all this recruitment, nor Croatian or at least foreigners,
mainly simply Frenchmen |
