Guard of the Imperial Guard Artillery - France 1815

🔥 Artillery Guard of the Old Guard – Elite Protection for Napoleon's Firepower! 🔥

Introducing a figurine of a soldier from the Artillery Guard of the Old Guard, a unit that symbolized prestige and strength in the Imperial Army. These men belonged to the absolute elite – their mission was not only to operate the guns but also to protect the most important Guard artillery batteries that often decided the fate of battles.

Who Were the Artillery Guards?

• Selected from the most experienced veterans with years of service and proven bravery
• Required to meet strict physical standards – tall stature and flawless discipline
• Deployed at critical moments to defend Guard cannons against enemy infantry or cavalry attacks

Distinctive Appearance

The uniform of the Artillery Guard was imposing: a dark blue coat with red facings, white trousers, and a tall bearskin cap – a hallmark of elite Guard units. Armed with a musket and bayonet, and often a sabre, they were ready to defend the guns at all costs.

The Artillery Guard stood as a symbol of courage and loyalty – their motto "The Guard dies but does not surrender!" applied equally to those who protected Napoleon's most powerful weapon: artillery.
