Title: General Staff - Etat Major Louis XIV - Gottstein
Post by: marko on October 24, 2015, 01:38:59 PM
A fairly traveled set of engravings from Gottstein to Krog to Leipzig Collectors Society and purchased from Berliner Zinnfiguren.  Designed by Rousselot and engraved by a number of engravers - Maier, Furth, Rieger.

Terrana also had a version of this and there are a number of other partial renditions as well.

As a lover of the time period and 'showy' French army it is a set I wanted from my collection immediately when I saw it in Krog's catalog but, it was a bit out of my price range.  Now many years and several attempts later success - though it involved some brisk EBay sales to justify the expense!
