EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Waterloo, Belgium in 1886, capturing the historical site of one of the most significant battles in European history. The artist behind this masterpiece is J F Taelmans, who skillfully depicts the landscape where the famous Battle of Waterloo took place on June 18,1815. In this mesmerizing image, we can see the vast field that witnessed a fierce clash between Napoleon's French forces and the British led by the Duke of Wellington. The focal point lies in the distance with Lion Hill, serving as a poignant memorial marking where Prince of Orange was wounded during this monumental battle. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and intensity to this engraving, emphasizing its historical significance. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back to a pivotal moment in time when nations clashed for power and supremacy. Taelmans' attention to detail brings out both architectural elements and natural beauty within this Belgian landscape. This print serves as a reminder not only of war but also resilience and remembrance. It stands as an enduring testament to human courage amidst conflict. As we reflect on these events from over a century ago captured through Taelmans' lens, we cannot help but be reminded of Napoleon Bonaparte's legacy - his rise as Emperor Napoleone di Buonaparte or "Boney" - forever etched into history books.
