EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "La Haye-Sainte, Waterloo, c. 1920" transports us back in time to the tumultuous era of the Napoleonic Wars. With its vibrant colors and meticulous detailing, this colour lithograph by Victor Huen captures a pivotal moment in history with remarkable accuracy. In this scene, we witness the relentless storming of La Haye-Sainte farmhouse by French troops during the Battle of Waterloo. The billowing smoke from cannon fire engulfs the battlefield, creating an atmosphere charged with tension and chaos. Amidst the turmoil, brave soldiers press forward while drummers rhythmically beat their instruments to maintain morale and communicate commands. The image showcases not only the ferocity of battle but also provides a glimpse into everyday life as a farmer tends to his land amidst war-torn surroundings. This juxtaposition highlights both the resilience and vulnerability of ordinary people caught up in extraordinary circumstances. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are reminded of the immense sacrifices made by those who fought on both sides during one of Europe's most significant conflicts. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst destruction and violence, humanity endures. This exceptional artwork is part of Bibliothèque Paul-Marmottan's collection in Boulogne-Billancourt, France – an institution dedicated to preserving precious cultural heritage for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
