EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Battles of the British Army from 1808 to 1814 - Picture medal, 1815" created by artist Edward Orme in 1910. The image is a side view of a circular souvenir-medal that was part of a collection box issued by Orme to commemorate the military campaigns led by the renowned Duke of Wellington in 1815. The photograph captures the intricate details and vibrant colors of this historical memento. The medal features an angelic figure with wings, symbolizing victory and protection, surrounded by various scenes depicting significant battles fought by the British Army during the early 19th century. It serves as both a work of art and a testament to the bravery and triumphs achieved on these battlefields. Displayed against a backdrop representing England's countryside, this print evokes feelings of national pride and reverence for history. Its inclusion in "The Army Pageant" edited and arranged by F. R. Benson and Algernon Tudor Craig, further solidifies its significance within military literature. As viewers gaze upon this remarkable piece, they are transported back in time to witness Lord Wellington's strategic campaigns firsthand. This print not only preserves moments from our past but also pays homage to one of Britain's greatest military leaders – Arthur Wellesley, better known as the Duke of Wellington or even "the Iron Duke". With its rich symbolism and meticulous craftsmanship, this print serves as an invaluable historical artifact that allows us to connect with our nation's past while appreciating artistic excellence at its finest.
