EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable statuette of William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland, dating back to 1746. Crafted from lead with a stunning bronze patination by the renowned sculptor Sir Henry Cheere, this exquisite piece is now housed in the National Army Museum in London. Believed to have been created for a close friend or ardent admirer of the Duke of Cumberland shortly after his triumphant victory at the Battle of Culloden in 1746, this statuette holds great historical significance.

The photograph beautifully captures the regal essence and commanding presence exuded by the Duke as he sits atop his majestic horse. With its intricate details and expert craftsmanship, this statuette serves as both a testament to Cheere's artistic prowess and as a tribute to one of history's notable military figures. Displayed against an elegant backdrop at the National Army Museum, this image invites viewers into a world where art seamlessly intersects with history.
