EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 19th century and find ourselves amidst a significant moment in history. The image showcases a Highlander from the renowned Black Watch regiment attending to a distinguished General of Hussars, possibly Lord Uxbridge. This intriguing study by George Jones offers us a visual insight into the preparations for The Battle of Waterloo. The painting captures the essence of military life during that era, with its meticulous attention to detail and masterful use of oil on board. Every brushstroke brings forth an air of authority and strength as these two figures stand side by side, ready to face whatever challenges lie ahead. The Highlander's traditional tartan kilt and distinctive plaid cloak contrast beautifully against the General's elaborate hussar uniform adorned with intricate gold braiding. Their presence exudes power and determination, symbolizing the unity between different branches of the British army. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we cannot help but be reminded of the historical significance surrounding The Battle of Waterloo. It was here that Napoleon Bonaparte faced his final defeat in 1815, marking an end to his reign as Emperor of France. George Jones' skillful portrayal transports us back in time, allowing us to reflect on the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by these soldiers who fought valiantly for their country. This print serves as both a testament to their unwavering dedication and a reminder of our shared history.
