EDITORS COMMENTS
The Bivouac before the Battle of Bussaco, captured in this stunning illustration by Richard Caton Woodville II, transports us back to a pivotal moment in history. Published in Cassell's 'British Battles on Land and Sea' around 1910, this lithograph depicts the scene just before the Battle of Busaco on September 27th, 1810. In the darkness of early morning, soldiers clad in their military uniforms gather around a campfire. The flickering flames cast an ethereal glow upon their faces as they prepare for the impending battle. This image captures both the anticipation and camaraderie among these brave men who are about to face French forces led by Lord Wellington's Anglo-Portuguese army. As dawn breaks, these soldiers find sustenance amidst the chaos and uncertainty that lies ahead. They share a meal together, finding solace and strength in each other's company. Their determination is palpable as they fortify themselves with food before engaging in one of history's most significant conflicts. Woodville's attention to detail brings this historical event to life; every soldier is meticulously rendered with precision and accuracy. Through his masterful engraving technique, he immortalizes not only a moment but also an entire era defined by sacrifice and triumph. This print serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and bravery exhibited by those who fought during the Peninsular War. It stands as a testament to British victory while honoring those who made great sacrifices for their country.
