EDITORS COMMENTS
This aquatint print, titled "Soldiers Attending Divine Service, 1798 circa" takes us back to a significant period in history. Created by Thomas Rowlandson and colored by Schutz, this artwork was published by Rudolph Ackermann in London on August 1st, 1798. The scene depicted showcases soldiers attending a compulsory church parade during the Wars of the French Revolution (1793-1802). The high command believed that divine service played a crucial role in guiding the moral compass of army members who were susceptible to vices such as drink, adultery, and theft. This tradition of compulsory church parades dates back to the 17th century and continued until its abolition in 1946. Rowlandson's meticulous attention to detail brings this historical moment to life. The soldiers are shown standing or kneeling with reverence inside a grand church adorned with intricate architectural features. Their uniforms reflect their allegiance and dedication to their country. This aquatint print not only serves as an artistic representation but also offers insight into military practices during turbulent times. It reminds us of the importance placed on faith and morality within armies throughout history. Displayed at the National Army Museum in London, this print is a testament to both Rowlandson's artistic talent and his ability to capture significant aspects of society through his work.
