EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph by Charles Edmund Brock, depicting a pivotal moment in history - the Battle of Waterloo. This powerful image showcases the unwavering determination and bravery of the French Guard as they face their adversaries on the battlefield. Brock's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, capturing the intensity and chaos of this historic event. The soldiers' expressions reveal both fear and resolve as they stand united against overwhelming odds. Their vibrant uniforms contrast with the darkened sky, symbolizing their loyalty to Napoleon Bonaparte. This print holds significant historical value, transporting viewers back to June 18th, 1815 - a day that forever changed Europe's destiny. It serves as a reminder of the immense sacrifices made by those who fought for their respective nations during this monumental clash. Originally created as an illustration for "In Kings Gardens" written by McDougall in 1931, this lithograph has found its way into private collections around the world. Its inclusion in Thackeray's "Vanity Fair" further solidifies its place among esteemed works of art. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded not only of our shared human history but also of our capacity for courage and resilience amidst adversity.
