EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the portraits of the esteemed General Officers from an historical account of the Battle of Waterloo. Published in 1817 by M. Colburn, this coloured aquatint captures the essence and grandeur of these influential figures. From left to right, we see The Prince of Orange, The Duke of Wellington (1769-1852), and other notable commanders on horseback. Each portrait exudes strength and determination as they stand tall in their military attire. The composition is a testament to the aristocracy and power that these generals possessed during this significant battle. Their mounted presence symbolizes their authority and leadership on the battlefield. Amongst them are General Sir Thomas Picton, General Lord Hill, The Duke of Brunswick, and The Marquis of Anglesey. Together, they form a formidable group united by their dedication to duty. The inclusion of horses adds another layer to this artwork's narrative. These majestic animals represent not only transportation but also loyalty and bravery - qualities essential for success in warfare. This print serves as a visual reminder of the courage displayed by these remarkable individuals who played pivotal roles in shaping history. It offers us a glimpse into an era where honor was paramount, alliances were forged through bloodshed, and victory came at great sacrifice.
