Crosart arrives with the foreignness of a French voice in a Spanish uniform, carrying talk of sieges and defenses into a Russian room. He feels practical and worldly, a man whose experience has taught him to see cities as problems of strategy.

Crosart is a newly arrived Frenchman encountered in a Spanish uniform, bringing military experience into conversation about the siege of Saragossa. He considers whether Moscow might be defended in a similar way, briefly connecting distant campaigns to the anxious Russian present. The novel gives him no further personal history or lasting role.

Description

Crosart is identified as a Frenchman newly arrived in a Spanish uniform, the sole concrete element of his appearance. The text does not state his height, build, skin tone, hair, eyes, age, facial features, or any distinctive marks. His uniform should therefore carry the visual identity, while his expression and bearing remain otherwise unspecified.
