EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "The Village of Pombal" takes us back to the historic events of 11th March 1811 during the Peninsular War. Engraved by C. Turner and based on a work by Thomas Staunton St. Clair, this print showcases the commanding presence of Arthur Wellesley, the 1st Duke of Wellington. Amidst a chaotic scene filled with billowing smoke and raging flames, we witness the evacuation of Pombal as French troops retreat in disarray. The village is brought to life through intricate details that capture both movement and stillness simultaneously. In this dramatic landscape, soldiers can be seen riding horses with purposeful determination while directing their comrades towards safety. The Duke himself stands tall at the forefront, exuding an air of authority as he commands his troops with unwavering resolve. The artist's skillful use of color adds depth and intensity to the composition, enhancing our understanding of the urgency and chaos unfolding before our eyes. This historical moment frozen in time serves as a testament to bravery and strategic leadership amidst turmoil. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from a private collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one pivotal episode from an era defined by conflict and resilience. It reminds us not only of past struggles but also celebrates those who fought valiantly for freedom against all odds.
