Trentsensky, c.1840.] Austrian soldiers on the offensive in a rare suite of hand-colored lithographs.

He served in the Austrian army as a young man and took part in the campaigns of 1814-1815 against Napoleon. Only one copy of this work is recorded at auction. Not in Colas, Lipperheide or De Ridder; see De Ridder 231 for Kriegs-Scenen C. Folio (337 x 270mm). 6 hand-colored lithographs heightened with gum Arabic, mounted on card. 20th-century half morocco over marbled boards, with publisher’s printed wrappers bound in (light wear to spine and corners).
