EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the mid-19th century, capturing the solemn beauty of the Plains of Waterloo. The image showcases three remarkable monuments that stand as enduring symbols of a historic battle fought on June 8,1815. On the left, we see the Hanoverian Monument, erected in honor of the Kings German Legion. This British military unit was formed by King George III in 1803 and played a crucial role in the Battle of Waterloo. In the center stands the Gordon Monument, paying tribute to Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Alexander Gordon. As Aide de Camp to the Duke of Wellington, he valiantly fought but tragically succumbed to his wounds at this very battlefield's end. To our right is an imposing structure known as Lions Mound or Butte du Lion. It marks where William II of Netherlands fell from his horse after being struck by a musket ball during this momentous clash between Napoleon's forces and a coalition led by Britain's Duke of Wellington and Prussian Field Marshal Blucher. Robert Brandard skillfully captured these architectural marvels amidst a vast landscape dotted with cattle grazing peacefully. His monochrome engraving evokes both awe for their grandeur and reverence for those who sacrificed their lives on this hallowed ground. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, it transports us back in time—inviting us to reflect on war's consequences while appreciating how these monuments serve as poignant reminders for future generations visiting Belgium's renowned tourist attraction: The Plains of Waterloo.
