EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Charge of the 7th Light Dragoons at Corunna" transports us back to a moment of intense drama and bravery in military history. Created by Richard Caton Woodville II, this print captures the essence of a pivotal event during the Peninsular War. The scene depicted is one of chaos and heroism as the 7th Light Dragoons charge fearlessly into battle. With swords raised high, they gallop through the Spanish town of Corunna with unwavering determination. The artist's attention to detail brings every element to life – from the billowing clouds of dust kicked up by their horses' hooves to the expressions etched on each soldier's face. Woodville's work originally appeared in The Illustrated London News in September 1895, providing readers with a vivid visual account of this historic event. This particular print now resides in a private collection but continues to captivate viewers with its powerful portrayal. As we gaze upon this lithograph, we are reminded not only of the courage displayed by these soldiers but also of the tumultuous nature of war itself. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst chaos and danger, acts of valor can emerge. This engraving offers us an opportunity to reflect on both historical events and human resilience while appreciating Woodville's artistic talent for capturing such dramatic moments on paper.
