I disagree and think the 1800s looked fantastic

Also since the other thread on paintings died, I'd like to post the old OP picture and ask if anyone knew what the name of this painting is. It's a Napoleonic Cuirassier as far as I can tell, but reverse image search and googling have led me nowhere.

Lol what is this, the three musketeers? Lame.

From what I can find it's a pretty recent painting by a guy called Keith Rocco, he does quite a lot of 19th century stuff. The painting is simply titled "French Cuirassier".

Thank you

Shooting from the guns on the galloping should be very ineffectively

But has anyone really been far as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

Ah shit, okay, it's definitely not Keith Rocco, he just told me so himself.

If anyone has the slightest idea who made I would be very appreciative.
