Historical figure of a soldier of the Toledo Infantry Regiment during the defence of Cartagena de Indias in 1741.
CI 002 – Toledo Infantry Regiment, 1741
Historical 1/30 scale (60 mm) figure depicting a soldier of the Toledo Infantry Regiment during the defence of Cartagena de Indias in 1741, one of the most notable episodes in 18th-century Spanish military history.
The Toledo Regiment formed part of the Spanish forces defending Cartagena de Indias against the major British expedition during the War of Jenkins' Ear. The resistance of the Spanish troops, together with the city's fortifications and the defensive strategy of its commanders, helped repel the attack and keep Cartagena under Spanish control.
This miniature forms part of the Cartagena de Indias 1741 collection, dedicated to the units and historical figures involved in the defence of the city.
An especially interesting piece for collectors of Spanish military miniatures, Spanish infantry, Cartagena de Indias, Blas de Lezo and 18th-century armies.
