The "Hussars and Infantry of the Duke of Brunswick Oelss Corps" is a notable illustration from the series "Costumes of the Army of the British Empire, according to the last regulations 1812," engraved by J.C. Stadler and published by Colnaghi and Co. between 1812 and 1815. This series, created by Charles Hamilton Smith, offers a detailed visual documentation of the military uniforms and regalia of the British Army during the early 19th century, a period marked by the Napoleonic Wars and significant military reforms.

Charles Hamilton Smith, an accomplished artist and military officer, meticulously captured the essence of military attire, providing an invaluable resource for historians and enthusiasts of military history. The illustrations are renowned for their accuracy and attention to detail, reflecting the precise regulations and styles of the time. The Duke of Brunswick Oelss Corps, also known as the Black Brunswickers, was a distinguished unit within the British Army, composed of German volunteers who fought against Napoleonic forces. The corps was named after its leader, Frederick William, Duke of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, who was a staunch opponent of Napoleon.

The Hussars and Infantry of this corps were particularly noted for their distinctive black uniforms, which symbolized mourning for the Duke's father, who had been killed fighting the French. The hussars, a type of light cavalry, were known for their agility and speed, often used for reconnaissance and skirmishing. The infantry, on the other hand, played a crucial role in line battles and defensive operations.

Smith's illustrations not only depict the uniforms but also convey the spirit and discipline of the soldiers. The engravings by J.C. Stadler further enhance the visual appeal, bringing to life the textures and colors of the period's military attire. Published by Colnaghi and Co., a prominent London-based print seller and publisher, this work remains a significant contribution to the documentation of military history, offering insights into the sartorial and organizational aspects of the British Army during a pivotal era.
