Napoleonic Uniforms in Original Watercolors by Friedrich (Fritz) Neumann
Below is shown a collection of original watercolors featuring exclusively Napoleonic uniforms by Friedrich (Fritz) Neumann. He was a uniform painter from the 19th century who did not leave a cohesive body of work. He is likely the author of the article on uniform works in the Royal Collections in Dresden, published in the Communications on the History of Military Dress (1893, No. 12). There he identifies himself as an inspector at the Royal Court Theatre in Dresden and reports that he (H.? Neumann) has for years been engaged in producing uniform pictures of all eras and peoples for collectors and enthusiasts. Richard Knötel likewise gratefully refers to this uniform painter elsewhere.
