Napoleon and his Imperial Guard, early 19th century. Engraving produced in Berlin. A parade of the French Imperial Guard being reviewed by Emperor Napoleon I. The infantry of the Imperial Guard were veteran troops considered to be the cream of Napoleon's army. Their repulse by the Anglo-Dutch army at the Battle of Waterloo (18 June 1815) was the decisive moment that ended both the battle and ultimately Napoleon's return to power in France.
