CI 003 Zaragoza Infantry Regiment, 1741

CI 003 – Zaragoza Infantry Regiment, 1741

Historical 1/30 scale (60 mm) figure depicting a soldier of the Zaragoza Infantry Regiment during the defence of Cartagena de Indias in 1741, one of the most notable episodes in 18th-century Spanish military history.

The Zaragoza Regiment formed part of the Spanish forces involved in the defence of Cartagena de Indias against the major British expedition during the War of Jenkins' Ear. The Spanish troops, supported by the city's fortifications and led by their commanders, successfully resisted the siege and repelled the British attack.

This miniature forms part of the Cartagena de Indias 1741 collection, dedicated to the historical figures and military units 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.
