**The Fierce Assault on Redoubt No. 6 at Düppel**
In this dramatic print from the Illustrated London News in 1864, we witness a pivotal moment of conflict during the Second Schleswig War between Prussia and Denmark. On April 18th, 1864, combined battalions of the Elizabeth and Augusta regiments of Guards launched a fierce assault on Redoubt No. 6 at Düppel (now Dybbøl in Sonderjylland, Denmark). The smaller redoubt on the right-hand side is Redoubt No. 6 itself, with its slightly more distant counterpart, Redoubt No. 4.
As Prussian troops charge forward under the sound of bugles and gunfire, they face fierce resistance from Danish defenders entrenched behind fortifications. Bayonets glint in the sunlight as soldiers clash on the battlefield, their movements captured in a moment of intense action by an unknown artist who witnessed these events firsthand.
This powerful image serves as a testament to the bravery and sacrifice displayed during this brutal conflict that ravaged Denmark's borders from 1864-1865. The War in Denmark: Prussian Assault on Redoubt No. 6 at Düppel (18 April) is an evocative reminder of the human cost of war, as soldiers on both sides fought for their nations' sovereignty and survival.
