This is a dance scene from the early years of the 1st Empire. The figure on the left in red trousers is a trooper in the 7th Hussars; the central figure perhaps represents a corporal of Chasseurs of the Imperial Guard in undress uniform; the figure on the right in a grey overcoat possibly represents a member of the Garde Nationale.

This painting (oil on board, 28 x 48.5 cm inside frame) shows an Austrian horse artillery gun team of the KuK army in the old pre-1914 uniform. Pock was perhaps one of the most celebrated of the Austrian artists where this genre was concerned and there are several examples of his work in the Military History Museum in Vienna.

This fine miniature on ivory shows a high-ranking Austrian officer, possibly a sapper, wearing the Commander's cross of the Maria Theresa order (the Austrian VC), along with another cross, which I have not yet deciphered. One can date the painting from the use of the open collar combined with stock and the extravagant curly coiffure of the subject.
