Dear All,
I'm an enthusiast of the 1813 campaign as many nations were involved, with many different uniforms worn by troops. The Italic kingdom army participated in several battles and in particular Division Fontanelli to which the 2nd light infantry belonged. The ordinary uniform included tight trousers and gaiters, but after 1812, green loose trousers, with piping in the regiment's colour, or grey or brown were delivered to te troop.
This a first representaive of the 2nd Rgt that I painted. As you can see I had to shorten the tails. The chasseurs had single shoulder belts, shoulder straps instead of epaulettes worn with the previous uniforms.
