The Last Cartridges (painting)

The Last Cartridges (French: Les Dernières Cartouches) is an 1873 painting by the French artist Alphonse de Neuville.
It recreates an incident of the Franco-Prussian War, when the French defenders of Bazeilles fought to the last cartridge during the 1870 Battle of Sedan. The fighting at Bazeilles was celebrated by the French nation as a moral victory amidst an otherwise catastrophic defeat.
The painting was featured in the turn-based strategy game "Civilization V".
