EDITORS COMMENTS
Summoned to Waterloo: Brussels, 1815" is a captivating chromolithograph print depicting a pivotal moment in the historic Battle of Waterloo. The image, published in 1898 by Robert Hillingford, portrays the officers leaving the Duchess of Richmond's ball, with the Duke of Wellington making his way to the battlefield in a carriage. The scene is set against the backdrop of a bustling Brussels street, with a group of Highlanders to the right, their bagpipes adding an air of urgency and excitement. The Duke of Wellington, Arthur Wellesley (1769-1852), was a renowned British military leader who played a crucial role in the Napoleonic Wars. The Battle of Waterloo, fought on June 18, 1815, marked the final defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte and brought an end to his reign as the Emperor of the French. Wellington's quick thinking and strategic planning were instrumental in securing the Allied victory. The Duchess of Richmond's ball, held on the eve of the battle, was a grand affair attended by many high-ranking military officers. When news of the French invasion reached the ball, Wellington and his officers were summoned to the battlefield, leaving the festivities behind. The chromolithograph beautifully captures the sense of urgency and the contrast between the elegance of the ball and the impending military conflict. The intricate details of the print, from the textures of the officers' uniforms to the expressions on their faces, transport the viewer back in time to this pivotal moment in history. The inclusion of the Highlanders, with their distinctive bagpipes, adds a sense of drama and excitement to the scene. Overall, "Summoned to Waterloo: Brussels, 1815" is a stunning representation of a turning point in history and a testament to the bravery and determination of the military leaders of the time.
