EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases a sketch of General Rowland Hill, a prominent military figure during the Georgian era and a key commander in the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. The sketch was created by the skilled Dutch artist, Jan Willem Pieneman, in the year 1821 and is now held at Apsley House in London (WM 1479-1948). Born in 1772, Hill rose through the ranks as a Peninsular War veteran and an accomplished military leader in his own right. At the Battle of Waterloo, he commanded the II Corps and led the charge of Sir Frederick Adams brigade against the formidable Imperial Guard towards the end of the battle.

The intricately detailed sketch captures the intensity and focus of Hill's gaze, reflecting the unwavering determination that guided him through his military career. The photograph print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of war and heroism, when men like General Rowland Hill played a pivotal role in shaping history.
