Determining
which flags were used by particular regiments is somewhat problematic for the
Imperial Army. Aside from the Austrian units, the bulk of the Imperial force
were a collection of troops raised from the principalities and duchies
throughout the Holy Roman Empire.
Much of what I
have selected is conjectural, but based on the fashion of the period for
banners, flags and standards.
In addition to
the images I posted yesterday, J.Belaubre’s “Les triomphes de Louis XIV” also has interesting depictions.
From the
sketches, I made a final drawing for 4 general officer and 8 infantry flags
plus 15 cavalry standards was completed..
Later today,
the ground colour will be painted in so tomorrow I can include the details.
Cheers,
