EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolour painting, titled "Battle of the Pyrenees, 1813," is an exquisite depiction of a pivotal moment during the Peninsular War (1808-1814). Painted by the renowned English artist Richard Simkin in 1813, this masterpiece captures the intensity and heroism of the 95th Rifles (now known as the Rifle Brigade) during the Battle of the Pyrenees. The Peninsular War was a significant campaign in the Napoleonic Wars, fought primarily in the Iberian Peninsula. The Battle of the Pyrenees, fought on 25th and 26th July 1813, marked a turning point in the war, as the Allied forces, led by the Duke of Wellington, successfully repelled the French army's attempt to invade Spain from the north. The 95th Rifles, a distinguished regiment of foot riflemen, played a crucial role in the battle. Known for their unique tactics and long-range rifles, the Rifles were deployed on the flanks of the Allied line, providing covering fire and disrupting the French advance. Simkin's painting beautifully captures the moment as the Rifles take aim, their rifles raised, ready to fire. The regiment, which was raised in 1800 and disbanded in 1816, was famously known for its green uniforms and distinctive shakos. The painting also depicts the rugged terrain of the Pyrenees Mountains, which provided a challenging backdrop for the battle. This watercolour painting is a testament to the bravery and skill of the 95th Rifles during the Battle of the Pyrenees and is an essential piece of military history. Simkin's masterful use of colour and detail brings the scene to life, transporting us back to the battlefield nearly 200 years ago.
