king-of-gilboa: Westphalia, Garde du Corps, Trumpeter, Full Dress, 1813 This trumpeter of the Westphalian garde du corps (bodyguards) of Jerome Bonaparte wears the traditional reversed colors to distinguish himself as a musician. Compared to the full dress from four years earlier seen here, this field uniform is far more subdued and practical for use on the campaign trail. From the Anne S. K. Brown Military Collection at the Brown University Library, art by Herbert Knötel. -- source link
