The Capture of Buonaparte's Carriage, (18 June 1815), 1816
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to a significant moment in history - the night of the Battle of Waterloo on 18th June 1815. The Prussians, depicted as shadowy figures in the moonlit scene, have successfully captured Napoleon Bonaparte's abandoned military carriage. The image portrays an eerie atmosphere with the moon shining brightly overhead, casting long shadows across the landscape. A lone horse stands beside the carriage, seemingly frozen in time. It is a powerful reminder of the end of an era for one of history's most iconic figures. The engraving captures not only this historical event but also conveys a sense of mystery and intrigue. The unknown creator skillfully depicts Napoleon's escape from his captors through subtle hand gestures and body language. We are left wondering about his thoughts and emotions at that very moment. This piece comes from "The History of the War, from the Commencement of French Revolution to Present Time" written by Hewson Clarke in 1816. It serves as a visual representation that brings to life an important chapter in European history. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back to that fateful night when power shifted hands and destiny was forever altered.
