This print captures a significant moment in history - the Battle of Dettingen on 20th June 1743 during the War of the Austrian Succession. The image showcases Ligoniers Horse, a regiment of British cavalry, bravely charging into battle against the French forces. Led by their monarch, King George II himself, this battle marked his last personal leadership on the battlefield.

The vibrant colors bring to life the courage and determination displayed by both sides. The horses gallop fearlessly through smoke-filled air while soldiers fight valiantly for their country.
