EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Storming of St. Sebastian, 1815" by Edward Orme takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image is part of a collection box created by Orme to commemorate the military campaigns led by the Duke of Wellington in 1815. The scene depicted showcases the intense warfare between British and French troops during the siege of San Sebastian, Spain. In vivid color, we witness brave soldiers storming into battle, attacking with determination and valor. This artwork serves as both a commemoration and memento of this pivotal event. Orme's attention to detail is evident in this circular print that captures the essence of early 19th-century battlefield tactics and warfare. The artist skillfully combines historical accuracy with artistic expression, transporting viewers back in time. Displayed within a souvenir box alongside other medals from various campaigns, this print becomes an integral part of British military history. It offers insight into Britain's invasion efforts and its role on foreign soil during this period. Through this photograph, we are reminded not only of the bravery displayed by those who fought but also their sacrifices for their country. It stands as a testament to the courage exhibited on both sides during times of conflict. This remarkable piece from "The Army Pageant" edited by F. R Benson and Algernon Tudor Craig, allows us to appreciate history through artistry while honoring those who served on these battlegrounds over two centuries ago.
