The Great Wellington Statue - A Majestic View from Constitution Hill
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to Victorian London, offering a glimpse of the magnificent Great Wellington Statue as it would appear from Constitution Hill. Published in The Illustrated London News on October 3rd, 1846, this engraving by Ebenezer Landells showcases the monumental statue of the Duke of Wellington in all its grandeur. Perched atop his renowned steed, Copenhagen, the Duke's equestrian figure exudes power and authority. This illustration depicts the statue in its original location at Hyde Park Corner's Wellington Arch before being relocated to Aldershot. Sculpted by Matthew Cotes Wyatt, this masterpiece stands as a testament to both artistic prowess and military valor. The surrounding scene is bustling with life—a typical street view of Victorian London unfolds beneath the watchful gaze of this iconic sculpture. Marching soldiers add an air of patriotism and strength to the composition while neo-classical architecture frames this triumphal arch with elegance. As we admire this historic image captured by Landells' skilled hand, we are reminded not only of Britain's rich heritage but also how art can immortalize great figures like the Duke of Wellington for generations to come. Let us cherish these glimpses into our past that bridge time and connect us with those who came before us.
