Corporal Stiles of the 1st Royals and the Scotchy Greys - Capturing Bravery at Waterloo
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This lithograph by R. Ackermann, created in 1815, immortalizes a moment of extraordinary heroism during the Battle of Waterloo. In this historic scene, Corporal Stiles of the 1st Royals and his fellow soldiers from the Scotchy Greys are depicted capturing the standards of two regiments – the 45th and 105th – on June 18th, 1815. The image showcases British bravery amidst the chaos and violence of war. The intense expressions on their faces reveal their determination to secure victory for their country. As they charge forward on horseback, swords raised high, these courageous men embody unwavering resolve. The artist John Augustus Atkinson masterfully captures every detail in this lithograph, highlighting not only the heroic figures but also emphasizing the significance of these captured standards as symbols of triumph over enemy forces. Displayed at London's National Army Museum, this print is part of a series depicting acts of valor during campaigns across Europe. It serves as a reminder that it was through such acts that Britain emerged victorious in many battles fought during those turbulent Napoleonic Wars. As we gaze upon this artwork today, we are transported back to that fateful day when Corporal Stiles and his comrades demonstrated unparalleled courage on Belgian soil. Their actions forever etched into history as an example of selfless dedication to duty and love for one's nation.
