A fascinating artwork which inspired me to look this up as I had no previous knowledge of this battle.

The Battle of Vimeiro took place on 1808, August 21st between the French Army under the command of Jean Andoche JUNOT and the Anglo-Portuguese under the command of Sir Arthur Wellesley, future Wellington Duke. This battle was decisive to overcome the First French Invasion.

On the detailed panel below you easily can recognize the coalition: British troops in red jackets, and Portuguese in blue.
