EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - The Prince of Orange at the Battle of Waterloo. Engraved by the talented Matthew Dubourg, this artwork showcases his exceptional skill and attention to detail. Published in Edward Orme's "Historic, Military and Naval Anecdotes" in 1815, it stands as a testament to the bravery and leadership displayed on that fateful day. In this scene, we see the Prince of Orange distributing orders to his troops amidst the chaos of battle. His commanding presence is evident as he directs his soldiers with precision and determination. The artist, John Augustus Atkinson, masterfully translates this intensity onto paper through aquatint technique. The composition exudes a sense of urgency and action; bayonets gleam under sunlight while honours and medals adorn valiant soldiers' chests. Every element within the frame contributes to an atmosphere charged with anticipation. As part of The Stapleton Collection, this print holds immense historical significance. It serves as a reminder not only of one man's courage but also commemorates all those who fought alongside him for their country's freedom. Displayed proudly in any collection or gallery space, this remarkable piece invites viewers to reflect upon the sacrifices made during times of war while appreciating both artistic mastery and historical storytelling at its finest.
