EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable medal commemorating the Duke of Wellington and his victory at Waterloo in 1815. Crafted from white metal, this exquisite piece was created by an English School artist in the 19th century and is currently housed at the National Army Museum in London. The obverse side of this medal, which can be seen in another image (1268495), features intricate details that pay homage to the valiant efforts of Arthur Wellesley, also known as the Duke of Wellington. The reverse side captures our attention with its depiction of an angelic figure surrounded by scrolls and writing. These elements symbolize both victory and commemoration, serving as a testament to the significance of this historic battle during the Napoleonic Wars. The medallion's design beautifully encapsulates not only the bravery displayed on that fateful day but also honors those who fought alongside Wellington. It serves as a tangible reminder of their collective triumph over adversity. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artifact through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back to a time when courage prevailed against all odds. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only its artistic merits but also invites us to reflect upon history's defining moments and those who shaped them.
