EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historical significance of the Honourable Artillery Company, as depicted in Johann Nepomuk Schonberg's exquisite engraving. The artwork, created in 1888 for The Illustrated London News, takes us back to August 1664 when this esteemed military unit was established. The sketch portrays a scene from Moorfields, where members of the Honourable Artillery Company can be seen donning their impressive uniforms and standing proudly alongside various prominent figures such as Charles I and Prince Rupert. This image provides a glimpse into the rich history of this renowned infantry division. The attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke captures the essence of that time period with precision. From the meticulously designed cast iron weaponry to the orders being issued by officers, each element adds depth and authenticity to this artistic masterpiece. Notably, we see supporters rallying behind Prince of Wales and Queen Anne during these turbulent times marked by riots and unrest. The depiction also includes significant landmarks like Stone's Yard and George I's reign in 1822. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly preserved this piece of artistry through Fine Art Finder, allowing us to appreciate its beauty centuries later. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness an important chapter in military history - one that shaped not only the Honourable Artillery Company but also our understanding of warfare during that era.
