EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Waterloo 1815, Blucher receives the hat, the sword and the decorations of the Emperor at Genappe" transports us back to a significant moment in history. The color lithograph, created by an anonymous European School artist in the 19th century, captures a pivotal scene from the Battle of Waterloo. In this image, we witness Field Marshal Gebhard Leberecht von Blucher being presented with symbolic items belonging to none other than Napoleon Bonaparte himself. Blucher stands tall and proud as he graciously accepts the emperor's hat, sword, and decorations at Genappe. The intensity of this exchange is palpable; it marks not only a personal victory for Blucher but also symbolizes Napoleon's defeat and ultimate downfall. The postcard-like aesthetic adds a touch of nostalgia to this historical moment. Created in the early 20th century as part of Look and Learn's collection, it serves as both an educational tool and a visual reminder of one of Europe's most iconic battles. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable artwork that showcases bravery on one side and defeat on another. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how history can be captured through artistry – allowing us to reflect on past events that have shaped our present world.
