EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and historic print captures a momentous occasion in the life of the legendary Duke of Wellington. Titled "Wellington at Madrid, 1812" this image showcases the Duke's triumphant arrival in the Spanish capital after liberating it from French occupation during the Peninsular War. The scene is filled with joy and jubilation as Wellington is warmly welcomed by the people of Madrid. Riding on his majestic horse, he commands attention and admiration from both men and women who line the streets to catch a glimpse of their heroic liberator. The colorful flowers adorning balconies and lining the lane symbolize nature's celebration of this significant event. The composition beautifully portrays Wellington as a symbol of British strength and determination in defeating Napoleon's forces. His popularity among Spaniards is evident through their enthusiastic cheers and applause, making him an esteemed figure not only in Britain but also across Europe. This print serves as a testament to Wellington's heroism, depicting him as a commander who brought freedom to Spain while embodying courage, leadership, and resilience. It encapsulates an important chapter in history when nations united against tyranny. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by an unknown creator from George Routledge And Sons' book "Pictures of English History" dating back to around 1850s, we are transported back to that transformative era where bravery prevailed over oppression.
