EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant lithograph captures the moment of the death of Lt-Col William Miller of the 1st Guards at the Battle of Quatre Bras during the Napoleonic Wars in 1815. The image, one of sixteen in a series by J Atkinson, graphically illustrates the raw emotion and bravery displayed by British soldiers during the late campaigns on the European continent. Lt-Col Miller, supported by two of his men, lies on the ground, his eyes closed, as he is shown the regimental colours. The expression on the faces of the soldiers reveals their shock and sadness at the loss of their commanding officer. The intricate details of the soldiers' uniforms, weapons, and equipment add authenticity to the scene, while the use of bold lines and contrasting shades creates a sense of drama and intensity. The Battle of Quatre Bras was a crucial engagement in the larger Battle of Waterloo, which took place on June 16, 1815. The 1st Guards, under the command of Lt-Col Miller, played a significant role in the battle, helping to repel the French advance and buy valuable time for the Allied forces to regroup. Despite their valiant efforts, Lt-Col Miller was tragically killed in the heat of battle, leaving a lasting impact on his men and the course of the war. This powerful and moving image serves as a testament to the sacrifices made by soldiers during the Napoleonic Wars and the enduring spirit of the British military.
