A British square at Waterloo
A British Square at Waterloo
As used in the Napoleonic wars, the formation was constituted as a hollow square, or sometimes a rectangle, with each side composed of two or more ranks of soldiers armed with single-shot muskets or rifles with fixed bayonets. This type of formation was earlier used by the Romans (source: Wikipedia).
I've been working on this drawing for a week. I sketched the figures on separate papers and put them together in the end.
