EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating sepia photogravure that captures the essence of chaos and desperation in the aftermath of one of history's most significant battles. The image, taken by Andrew Carrick Gow, portrays a scene where soldiers are seen retreating on horseback, their faces etched with defeat and exhaustion. The composition skillfully conveys the sheer panic and urgency as men scramble to save themselves amidst the ruins left behind by war. The horses gallop frantically, their powerful muscles straining under the weight of fear. It is an evocative snapshot frozen in time that encapsulates the harsh reality faced by those who fought at Mont Saint Jean. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the devastating consequences brought about by warfare. It highlights not only the physical toll it takes on individuals but also its psychological impact on both victors and vanquished alike. Gow's masterful use of sepia tones adds depth and texture to this historical moment, transporting viewers back to a time when bravery clashed with despair on blood-soaked battlefields. As we gaze upon this print, we cannot help but be moved by the human drama unfolding before our eyes. In "After Waterloo: Every Man for Himself". Gow has captured more than just a military retreat; he has immortalized an enduring symbol of resilience in times of adversity. This artwork stands as a testament to humanity's unyielding spirit even in moments when all hope seems lost.
