EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to the aftermath of the historic Battle of Waterloo in 1815. Prussian soldiers, depicted with unwavering determination, have successfully captured Napoleon Bonaparte's coach. The scene is filled with tension and action as the soldiers take control of the situation. In a display of their military prowess, the soldiers have taken down both the driver and coachman, ensuring no escape for their formidable enemy. Major von Keller emerges as a central figure in this chaotic moment, boldly claiming Napoleon's luxurious carriage as his own prize. The handcoloured copperplate engraving brings life to this historical event, allowing us to witness not only the drama but also appreciate its artistic rendering. Rudolph Ackermann's Repository of Arts showcases this masterpiece that captures an important chapter in European history. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported into a world where war has left its mark on society. The grandeur of regency-era architecture stands juxtaposed against scenes of conflict and capture. This engraving serves as a reminder not only of military triumphs but also highlights the role played by aristocracy and landed gentry during times of war. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are invited to reflect on history and ponder how pivotal moments like these shape our present-day understanding.
