EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "Map of the Siege of St Sebastian" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Published by William Blackwood and Sons in 1848, this print showcases the meticulous cartography skills of Alexander Keith Johnston. The map provides an aerial view of the Portuguese city during the intense Siege of San Sebastián that took place from July 7th to September 8th, 1813. As our eyes wander across this intricate artwork, we are transported to a time when armies clashed on foreign soil. The positions of both French and British forces are meticulously marked, allowing us to visualize their strategic movements during this pivotal battle in the Peninsular War. The attention to detail is remarkable; every street and building within St Sebastian is carefully outlined. This map serves not only as a historical document but also as a testament to Johnston's skillful craftsmanship. Through this print, we catch glimpses into General Wellington's military tactics as he led his troops against formidable French opposition. It offers us an opportunity to delve into the past and gain insight into one chapter of European history. Preserved within private collections today, this engraving from The Stapleton Collection reminds us that art can be more than just aesthetic pleasure—it can serve as a window into our collective pasts.
