EDITORS COMMENTS
Goodbye! The 3rd Battalion Grenadier Guards Leaving Waterloo Station, October 21st 1899 (chromolitho) captures a poignant moment in history as soldiers bid farewell to their loved ones during the Second Anglo-Boer War. This print by George Harcourt depicts a scene filled with mixed emotions and anticipation. As the train stands ready on the platform of Waterloo Station, uniformed men stand tall alongside their families and partners. Wives clutch onto their husbands' arms, tears glistening in their eyes, while children look up at them with both pride and apprehension. It is a moment frozen in time - one that encapsulates the sacrifice and bravery of those who serve. The composition beautifully portrays the unity within this group of soldiers and their families. Each face tells its own story - some filled with determination, others marked by worry or sadness. The vibrant colors of the chromolitho add depth to this historical image, evoking a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. Published by Girls Own Paper in October 1900, this print serves as a reminder of the human cost behind every conflict. It immortalizes not only the brave men leaving for war but also those left behind on home soil, waiting anxiously for news from afar. This artwork from Bridgeman Images offers us an opportunity to reflect upon our shared history and honor those who have made sacrifices for our freedom.
