EDITORS COMMENTS
The Battle of Dettingen, fought on June 27, 1743, was a pivotal moment in the War of the Austrian Succession. Led by King George II of Great Britain, the British and Hanoverian forces defeated the French army under the command of Marshal Maurice de Saxe. This historic print captures the essence of the battle's success, with the British monarch at the forefront, directing his troops to victory. The Battle of Dettingen took place near the town of Dettingen an der Donau in Bavaria, Germany. The conflict arose due to the ongoing struggle for the Austrian succession, with France and Austria vying for control. The British, allied with Austria, saw an opportunity to weaken the French position and secure their interests in Europe. The battle commenced with the French launching a surprise attack on the British and Hanoverian forces, who were initially taken aback. However, King George II rallied his troops and led a counter-attack, which proved decisive. The French were pushed back, and the battle ended with a clear victory for the Allies. This print serves as a testament to the bravery and leadership of King George II and the British forces. The success at Dettingen boosted morale and strengthened the British position in Europe during the War of the Austrian Succession.
