EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the aftermath of the Battle of Waterloo, one of the most significant events in Napoleonic War history, which took place on June 18, 1815. The poem inscribed on the print, "But on the British heart were lost the terrors of the charging host; for not an eye the storm that viewed changed its proud glance of fortitude," is a poignant excerpt from Lord Byron's "Childe Harold's Pilgrimage," Canto IV, Stanzas XXIII. The poem speaks to the indomitable spirit of the British soldiers, who, despite the fearsome charge of the French army, remained steadfast in their resolve. The "host" refers to the French army, which charged at the British lines with great ferocity, creating a storm of chaos and terror. However, the British soldiers, their hearts filled with courage and fortitude, did not waver. Their gaze, unchanged by the terrifying sight before them, remained proud and resolute. The image itself depicts a chaotic battlefield, with soldiers from both sides engaged in hand-to-hand combat, horses rearing and charging, and smoke rising from the gunpowder explosions. Amidst the chaos, a lone British soldier stands tall, his gaze fixed on the horizon, embodying the spirit of fortitude and resilience that defined the British army during the Battle of Waterloo. This powerful image and poem serve as a poignant reminder of the courage and determination displayed by the soldiers on both sides during the Napoleonic Wars, and the enduring impact of this historic event on the annals of war and world history.
