EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the iconic moment from the Battle of Waterloo, known as the Charge of the 1st Life Guards. The image, created by Henry Joseph Harry Payne in 1890, is a vivid and detailed representation of the charge that took place on June 18, 1815. The 1st Life Guards, a British cavalry regiment established in 1788, played a crucial role in the final moments of the Napoleonic Wars. In this charge, the regiment, under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Lord Edward Somerset, charged towards the French forces, led by Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, in an attempt to break their lines and turn the tide of the battle. The scene captured in this print shows the moment of impact between the two forces, with the 1st Life Guards' horses and riders charging forward, swords drawn, towards the French infantry. The French soldiers, dressed in their distinctive blue uniforms, can be seen forming a defensive line, with some raising their muskets to fire. The chaos and intensity of the battle are palpable in the image, with smoke rising from the battlefield and the sound of clashing steel echoing through the air. This chromolithograph is a testament to the bravery and heroism of the soldiers of the 1st Life Guards, and is an important historical record of the Battle of Waterloo. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the scene to life, making it a captivating and memorable piece of art and history.
