I corrected Louis XIV on the advice of Eric Talmant and the description provided by Terana + 2x Claude Louis Hector Marquis de Villars

Hi Henry,
the text was not from the article. I received it as a supplement to this set while purchasing figures from mr. Terana.

I understand, thank you, Oleg. I've examined the painted figures in the Krannich/Krog book on Gottsein. Some align with Terana's descriptions, while others differ slightly. Is Terana's description based on a drawing by Rousselot, and if so, is it accessible somewhere? Alternatively, does anyone have pictures of the set painted by Terana?



Ok, I've found the complete leaflet in the forum https://intflatfigures.org/BFFS/History/LeGrandEtat.pdf ;). But still wondering about a Rousselot drawing in color :)

I did reach out to the vendor on these beauties last week looking for a price and ordering but, I have yet to hear back.  My Christmas present may be late this year I suppose.....though fortunately there is plenty to paint.

Hello Claudio.
Here is the description, a French text. Sorry.

Hi Richard, which book or journal is the Terana article from? I'm always surprised by these hidden gems...

Contratulations for your work ! With this iconographic documentation, C Térana gave a written description of the outfits of these marshals, some of which included the livery worn by their guard.
Richard


Hello Richard, can you share the Terana's descrition?
