EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Not till after the battle did Blucher and Wellington meet, 1815" by As Forrest, takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image depicts the Duke of Wellington and his Prussian ally Gebhard Leberecht von Blucher meeting after the Battle of Waterloo. It is an illustration from the book Our Island Story by H E Marshall, published in 1905. The scene showcases two great military minds coming together amidst the aftermath of a fierce battle. With vibrant colors that bring life to this historical encounter, we witness these esteemed figures on horseback as they shake hands in mutual respect and camaraderie. However, it's important to note that this particular publication had a biased perspective favoring British history. Despite its limitations, this artwork still manages to capture a pivotal moment where alliances were solidified and victory celebrated. As we delve into this photograph, we are transported back to early 19th-century England – witnessing not only an alliance between nations but also witnessing the resilience and determination of soldiers who fought side by side for their shared cause. Through this image, As Forrest skillfully encapsulates both the significance of war and diplomacy. It serves as a reminder that even amidst conflict and bloodshed, moments like these can pave the way for lasting friendships between nations.
