EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the essence of Lieutenant General John Moore, a Scottish-born British soldier who left an indelible mark on history. Known for his valiant efforts in the Napoleonic Wars, Moore's leadership and bravery were exemplified in his defeat of Soult at Corunna on January 16, 1809.
Despite emerging victorious in battle, Moore tragically suffered fatal wounds during the conflict. His untimely death inspired Charles Wolfe to immortalize him in the poignant poem "The Burial of Sir John Moore." This powerful piece pays homage to Moore's sacrifice and legacy as a revered military figure.
In this detailed wood engraving from c.1885, every line and contour conveys the strength and determination that defined Moore's character. The image showcases his wounded limb as a symbol of the physical toll taken by war.
Moore's story is one of courage, honor, and ultimate sacrifice for his country. As we gaze upon this historic portrait, we are reminded of the profound impact he had on shaping European history during a tumultuous period marked by conflict and upheaval. Lieut-General John Moore may have passed from this world centuries ago, but his spirit lives on through artistic representations like this one that capture his enduring legacy.
