The scene is set in August 1815, during the Napoleonic Wars, as tensions run high and war rages on. The image exudes a sense of tension and anticipation, with soldiers from both sides preparing for the inevitable outcome.
The historical significance of this event cannot be understated, as it marked a turning point in the conflict between France and Austria. The surrender of the French garrison was not only a military defeat but also symbolized the end of an era for Napoleon's forces.
As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back in time to witness one of the defining moments of European history.
