EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the cavalry under the command of Arthur Wellesley, famously known as the Duke of Wellington, during the historic Battle of Waterloo on June 18th, 1815. Painted by none other than the Duke himself, this artwork provides a unique insight into his perspective as both a military leader and an artist. The image is accompanied by an enumeration of the cavalry units present at this momentous battle. With meticulous handwriting in another hand below, it offers a glimpse into the organization and scale of this crucial conflict. This facsimile is part of a series that celebrates royal, historical, literary, and other autographs housed in London's esteemed British Museum. The vibrant colors bring life to this piece from the 19th century - a testament to its enduring significance. The print collector has preserved not only history but also artistry through their careful preservation and reproduction. Arthur Wellesley was more than just a military genius; he was also known as "the Iron Duke" for his unwavering determination and leadership qualities. His role in defeating Napoleon Bonaparte at Waterloo solidified his place in history as one of Britain's greatest heroes. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph print, we are transported back to that fateful day when courage clashed with adversity on Belgian soil. It serves as a reminder of our collective past and honors those who fought valiantly for freedom and victory.
