In this oil on board painting from 1822, we witness a group of retired soldiers gathered at an English tavern, eagerly celebrating the news of victory from the Battle of Waterloo. The scene unfolds outdoors as these brave veterans, both male and female, gather around to hear the dispatch being read aloud. Their faces reflect a mix of emotions – relief, pride, and perhaps even nostalgia for their own days on the battlefield. The presence of horses nearby reminds us of their loyal companions during those tumultuous times. Wilkie's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; he skillfully portrays each character with depth and individuality.
