EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intensity and chaos of the Battle of Mont-Saint-Jean, which took place on June 18,1815. Drawn and painted by Major Kunts of the Hanoverian unit during the actual action, this artwork provides a unique perspective on one of history's most significant battles. Measuring at 14.5x20.2 cm, this pencil and gouache masterpiece showcases the German School's talent in depicting war scenes with remarkable detail. The Bibliothèque Paul-Marmottan in Boulogne-Billancourt proudly houses this piece as part of its esteemed collection. The image portrays a strategic slope where various armies are engaged in fierce combat. Led by military genius Duke Wellington, allied forces fight against Napoleon Bonaparte's troops with unwavering determination. From infantry to cavalry units, each soldier plays their role amidst the backdrop of a Belgian chateau and farmhouse. Notably, Hougoumont - an integral part of Wellington's defense strategy - is depicted prominently in this artwork. The artist skillfully captures both the beauty and devastation that unfolded on this historic battlefield. Major Kunts' ability to capture such raw emotion from life adds authenticity to his work. This print serves as a testament to his bravery as he risked his own safety to document these crucial moments for future generations. As we gaze upon this stunning piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded not only of the horrors of war
