This model depicts a
blacksmith’s wagon constructed for use in field artillery contexts.
The structure comprises a timber frame reinforced with metal
fittings, mounted on large wooden wheels, and includes a drawbar to
facilitate movement. Internally, it houses key implements associated
with blacksmithing—such as an anvil, bellows, and compartments for
the storage of raw materials. Historically, wagons of this type
played a vital logistical role, enabling immediate maintenance of
artillery and cavalry apparatus, and thereby supporting the
sustained operational capacity of military forces during extended
campaigns.
