Article description

Original copper engraving, hand colored. The village of Eggmühl, which was occupied by troops of the IVth Austrian Army Corps, was taken by the French under heavy fire from Austrian batteries on the heights behind Eggmühl. Prince Orsini-Rosenberg initially retreated to the heights near Laichling and tried to block the advance of the French for as long as possible. Meanwhile, the French vanguard, mainly cavalry, marched on the large highway behind the Austrian army towards Regensburg. (Wikipedia)
