EDITORS COMMENTS
This aquatint print depicts the pivotal moment at the Battle of Waterloo on June 18, 1815, with the British army at its center. The image, created by William Heath and engraved by Robert Sutherland, was published by John Jenkins on December 1, 1815. The intricate details of the print show the intensity and chaos of the battlefield, as British soldiers engage in hand-to-hand combat with their French counterparts. The vignette title, "vol. 1," is engraved on the print, indicating that it is likely part of a larger series documenting the Napoleonic Wars, which spanned from 1799 to 1815. The aquatint technique used in the print adds a level of depth and texture, making it a valuable historical artifact. The Battle of Waterloo was a turning point in European history, marking the end of Napoleon Bonaparte's rule and the restoration of the Bourbon monarchy in France. This print serves as a testament to the bravery and determination of the British army during this significant historical event.
