EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Head Quarters Waterloo 1815" takes us back in time to one of the most significant battles in history. Engraved by M. Dubourg in 1819, this coloured aquatint showcases the aftermath of the Battle of Waterloo, a decisive conflict that ended Napoleon Bonaparte's rule. The image depicts a scene filled with both heroism and tragedy. The headquarters stand tall amidst the ravaged battlefield, serving as a symbol of strategic command during this intense confrontation between British forces and their allies against Napoleon's army. Wounded soldiers are scattered across the landscape, highlighting the immense sacrifice made by these brave men. Horses can be seen injured and exhausted, reflecting not only their vital role in warfare but also their vulnerability on the front lines. The buildings surrounding the headquarters bear witness to the destruction caused by relentless fighting. This artwork is part of a collection called "Historic, Military and Naval Anecdotes" published by Edward Orme in 1819. It serves as a visual testament to personal valor and bravery exhibited during this long-contested war. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to an era where conflicts shaped nations' destinies. It reminds us of those who fought for freedom and justice while shedding light on the harsh realities faced by soldiers on both sides of battlefields like Waterloo.
