McLean's

Turkish Army of 1812


This book was originally published in London in 1815 by Thomas McLean. The watercolors were made from life by the French contemporary artist de Molleville in 1812. This is the
primary source on the Turkish Army of the period. Though the Turkish style dress is most prominent, European style is obvious in the artillery and European style Bostangis troops.
