French dragoon of the Napoleonic Wars, early 19th century. Artist: Unknown.

French dragoon of the Napoleonic Wars, early 19th century. A corporal of the 16th Regiment of Dragoons, leaving camp. Pencil annotation indicates that for this regiment the plume should be red, not white as shown. In 1815 the 16th Dragoons formed part of General Maurin's 7th Cavalry Division, attached to Gerard's IV Corps. They took part in the Battles of Ligny (16 June) and Wavre (18-19 June), but failed to defeat the Prussian rearguard in time to have an effect at the Battle ofWaterloo.
