This set represents the famous painting "The Last Cartridge" by Alphonse de Neuville in 1873.

The painting recreates an incident of the Franco-Prussian War, when the French defenders of Bazeilles fought to the last cartridge during the 1870 Battle of Sedan. The fighting at Bazeilles was celebrated by the French nation as a moral victory amidst an otherwise catastrophic defeat.
