EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Battles of the British Army, Waterloo" takes us back in time to one of the most significant moments in European history. Created by Richard Caton Woodville II, this lithograph captures a pivotal scene from the Battle of Waterloo. In this illustration for The Illustrated London News, dated 16 June 1894, we witness a dramatic moment as the Duke of Wellington passes the lines on the morning of battle. Mounted on his horse and surrounded by his loyal troops, Wellington exudes an air of determination and leadership. The horses gallop with intensity as they prepare for what will be a fierce confrontation. The composition skillfully portrays both the grandeur and chaos that characterized this historic event. From afar, we can see vast stretches of land where thousands upon thousands would clash in combat. This battle scene is brought to life through intricate details such as soldiers brandishing their weapons and smoke billowing from cannons. Waterloo was a turning point not only for Britain but also for Europe as it marked Napoleon Bonaparte's final defeat. Arthur Wellesley, better known as Wellington, played a crucial role in securing victory against Napoleon's forces. As we gaze at this remarkable print, we are reminded of the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by those who fought during this monumental battle. It serves as a testament to the indomitable spirit and resilience displayed by both British soldiers and their allies throughout history.
