EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the intensity and chaos of the Battle of Waterloo, specifically the pivotal moment at La Haye-Sainte on 18 June 1815. The Battle of Waterloo was a decisive engagement of the Napoleonic Wars, marking the final defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte's imperial French army by the Seventh Coalition, comprised of forces from the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Prussia, and other European states. The scene at La Haye-Sainte, a small farmstead located near the Prussian position, was a focal point of the battle as the French attempted to outflank the Prussian right. In this print, we see the fierce fighting between the French and Prussian forces, with soldiers locked in hand-to-hand combat and the smoke of gunpowder filling the air. The Prussian infantry, led by General von Thielmann, are seen advancing to retake the farmstead, while the French cavalry, under the command of General D'Erlon, charge in an attempt to turn the tide of the battle. The Battle of Waterloo was a turning point in European history, marking the end of the Napoleonic Wars and the beginning of a new era. This print provides a vivid and compelling depiction of the intense fighting that took place at La Haye-Sainte, offering a glimpse into the courage and determination of the soldiers who fought in this historic battle.
