EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and historically significant print that transports us back to one of the most famous battles in European history. This image, taken from the 1810s, vividly depicts the early 19th century scene of the brave British defence of the Chateau of Hougoumont during the Battle of Waterloo. The Chateau of Hougoumont, located in present-day Belgium, was a key strategic position in the battlefield. The British forces, led by Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Picton and Major-General Sir Percy Simpson, put up a heroic resistance against the French army under the command of Napoleon Bonaparte. In this evocative print, we see British soldiers fiercely defending the chateau, with rifles at the ready and smoke rising from the battlefield. The soldiers, dressed in their distinctive red coats and bearskins, are shown in a determined and focused stance, demonstrating the unwavering courage and discipline of the British Army. The farm buildings and the grand Chateau itself can be seen in the background, providing a sense of the rural setting of the battlefield. The action is intense, with the sound of weapons firing echoing through the air. The smoke from the gunpowder adds to the chaotic and dramatic atmosphere, as the soldiers engage in a fierce battle that would ultimately determine the outcome of the Battle of Waterloo. This print, created by the talented artist TERRY PARKER, is a testament to the bravery and determination of the soldiers involved in the Battle of Waterloo. It offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to experience the sights, sounds, and emotions of this pivotal moment in European history.
