The image of a Hussar (Cavalry Officer) is inspired by the wood relief carvings on an antique folk art butter mould. Hussars were a type of light cavalry which emerged in medieval Hungary and spread throughout Europe, notably Serbia – husar – Poland –Husarz- Prussia and France (Hussard). Frederick The Great of Prussia relied heavily on Hussars, as did Poland and Lithuania. Hussars also played a prominent role as cavalry in the Napoleonic Wars (1796–1815).
