EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Battle of Waterloo, 18th June 1815, Sheet 2nd, Crisis of the Battle" takes us back to a pivotal moment in history. The engraving by Alexander Keith Johnston depicts the intense and chaotic scene during the battle that forever changed Europe. As we gaze upon this artwork from the Private Collection of The Stapleton Collection, we are transported to the Belgian battlefield where Prussians and their allies strategically position themselves against the French forces. This detailed map showcases not only troop placements but also highlights military tactics employed by both sides. The crisis of the battle is palpable as cavalry charges forward with unwavering determination while artillery fires relentlessly in an attempt to gain control over this crucial battleground. Infantry soldiers stand resolute amidst chaos, following a meticulously planned army plan. The significance of this historical event cannot be overstated; it marked Napoleon Bonaparte's final defeat and ultimately led to his exile. This engraving captures not just a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to human resilience and sacrifice on both sides. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we can appreciate not only the artistry behind this print but also its value as a visual representation of one of history's most decisive battles. It reminds us that even within conflict lies beauty worth preserving for generations to come.
