The Battle of Austerlitz
“The Pratzen Heights, December 2, 1805. Napoleon's masked corps wheels onto the plateau as fog burns off in a brilliant sun. Foreground shows French infantry cresting the rise into the flank of Kutuzov's Russians; midground reveals the famous Sun of Austerlitz breaking through the mist; frozen ponds and Moravian villages stretch below where allied troops attempt to retreat across cracking ice.”
