EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a vivid scene from history, showcasing troops bivouacking near the quaint village of Villa Velha. Created by Thomas Staunton St. Clair and engraved by C Turner, this coloured aquatint provides a remarkable glimpse into the various occupations within an encampment during the Peninsular War. The image transports us back to that fateful evening on May 19th, 1811. The camp is alive with activity as soldiers engage in their daily routines amidst rows of neatly arranged tents. From cooking meals over open fires to tending to horses and repairing equipment, each soldier plays a vital role in maintaining order and readiness. The artist's attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in this historical moment. Vibrant colors bring life to every corner of the encampment while capturing both the camaraderie among soldiers and their tireless dedication. As we gaze upon this artwork now housed at London's National Army Museum, we are reminded not only of the heroism displayed by these troops but also of their sacrifices during one of history's most significant campaigns. This piece serves as a poignant tribute to those who fought bravely for their countries' causes. Through this photo print, we can appreciate both the artistic skill involved in its creation and gain insight
