Историческая справка
Prince Pyotr Ivanovich Bagration, a descendant of the Georgian royal dynasty of Bagrationi, was born in 1765.
At the age of seventeen he entered military service in 1782, and in 1787-1791 Bagration took part in the Russo-Turkish war and later, in 1793-1794, in the Polish campaign.
The Price’s military merit did not go unnoticed: during Suvorov’s Italian and Swiss campaigns in 1799 he commanded the Russian army vanguard.
In the wars with France of 1805 and 1806-1807 he commanded the rearguard. Bagration also distinguished himself in the battles at Schöngrabern (1805), Austerlitz (1805), Preußisch Eylau (1807) and Friedland (1807).
In addition, he defeated the Swedes several times during the Russo-Swedish war of 1808-1809. At the same time, during the Russo-Turkish war of 1806-1812 he managed to become Commander-in-Chief of the Moldovan Army (1809-1810), and the Commander of Podolsk (2nd Western) Army since 1811.
With the beginning of the 1812 Patriotic War Bagration opposed the decision of drawing Russian armies off from Smolensk. In the course of the battle of Borodino he led the left wing which was hit by the first enemy’s attack. During the battle, the Prince was mortally wounded. He died on 12 September, 1812, wishing to serve his motherland till the very end.
