French Line Grenadiers in Bicorne (1805 – 1807)
Manufacture Product Number : EXP-54-BCF-01 The set contains 9 model soldiers comprising of 1 officer and 8 grenadiers. The heads and arms are interchangeable to enable the assembly of different action poses. |
| This BCF series is designed for those collectors interested in the period from Austerlitz to Friedland; and with a bit of modification, extend back to the Battle of the Pyramids and Marengo. The basic models are the same as that in 54 IPG 01 except for the heads and ammo pouch. The Grenadiers’ uniforms are based on the national guard uniform regulations of 1791 with the long-tailed coat (habit long) with lapels closed at the chest and split at the lower portion, exposing the waistcoat. They wear knee-breeches protected by gaiters reaching above the knees. This classic late 18th century dress is only replaced in 1812 by the Bardin regulations. The shape of the bicorne is not strictly regulated. There are broadly two styles:- 1. the more rigid ancien-regime style which we have adopted for these grenadiers (see above); and 2. the jaunty fore-and-aft style of the revolution which we have adopted for the fusiliers (see next section below). |
