EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured aquatint print, titled "View of the Cottage of Valette, 1817" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Created by James Rouse in the 19th century, this artwork is part of a collection that illustrates An Historical Account of the Battle of Waterloo. The scene depicted here is both haunting and poignant. A road stretches before us, flanked by fields scattered with fallen soldiers and wounded individuals. In the midst of this grim landscape, we see peasants diligently tending to those injured in battle. Their selfless acts of care and compassion amidst chaos are truly remarkable. The cottage itself stands as a symbol of solace amidst turmoil—a place where healing can begin for those fortunate enough to find refuge within its walls. The presence of nuns further emphasizes the importance placed on providing medical aid and comfort during times of war. As our gaze shifts towards the foreground, we witness soldiers on horseback riding through the lane—perhaps searching for survivors or delivering urgent messages from one battlefield to another. Horses play an integral role in this narrative; their strength and loyalty serve as a stark contrast to the devastation surrounding them. This print not only captures a specific moment in history but also serves as a reminder that even in times marked by violence and suffering, humanity's capacity for kindness and resilience shines through.
