EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative map print depicts the strategic layout of the city of Badajoz during the Siege of 1812, a significant event in the Peninsular War (1808-1814) between France and the allied forces of Spain, Portugal, and the United Kingdom. The Siege of Badajoz took place from March 21 to April 6, 1812, and is particularly notable for its brutal and protracted nature. The map, dated 1817 and titled "Plan of the Siege of Badajoz," provides a detailed and meticulous representation of the city's fortifications, including the formidable walls, bastions, and moats. The intricate network of roads, gates, and defensive structures is clearly delineated, offering a glimpse into the military strategy and planning that went into the siege. The map also highlights the key positions and movements of the various forces involved in the siege. The French army, led by Marshal Soult, is shown occupying the northern part of the city, while the allied forces, under the command of General Beresford, are positioned to the south. The map also indicates the locations of various batteries and artillery positions, as well as the approaches and trenches that were dug by the besieging forces. The Siege of Badajoz was a turning point in the Peninsular War, with the allied forces ultimately successful in capturing the city after a fierce and bloody battle. The map serves as a valuable historical record of this important military engagement, providing insight into the tactics, strategies, and fortifications that shaped the outcome of the siege.
