Jan Peter Verdusson (Flemish, 1700-1763) The Siege of Fontenoy, with the Duke of Cumberland on horseback, and Captain William Style, 1st Regiment of Foot Guards, seated at the Table signed lower right "Verdusson" oil on canvas 120 x 150cm Provenance: Private collection, Cambridge Captain William Style was the eldest son of Sir Thomas Style, 12th Baronet, (1624-1702) of Wateringbury, Kent. The most celebrated anecdote of the battle relates to Lord Charles Hay, a captain in the 1st Foot Guards. On reaching the brow of the incline the columns confronted the French line of Foot. Opposite the 1st Foot Guards were the Garde Francaise. This French regiment had given way at Dettingen and in their precipitate retreat had tipped up one of the bridges of boats. Many had drowned. Lord Charles Hay is reputed to have doffed his hat and bowed to the French officers saying: "We are the English Guards. We remember you from Dettingen and intend to make you swim the Scheldt as you swam the Main." or "Messieurs les Gardes Francaises, s'il vous plait tirez le premier". Hay was wounded in the battle.
