EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a scene of military discipline and precision, as soldiers of the English Army execute the standing salute exercise, as illustrated by William Hogarth for John Blackwell's Account of the Artillery Company. The image is taken from Francis Grose's Military Antiquities, published in London in 1812 by Stockdale. In the print, a group of soldiers, dressed in their full regalia, stand at attention, their eyes fixed on an unseen object in the distance. Their right hands are raised to their foreheads in a formal salute, while their left hands rest at their sides, holding their muskets. The soldiers' posture is rigid and uniform, reflecting the meticulous training and discipline instilled in the English military of the time. The print provides a fascinating glimpse into military life during the early 19th century. The intricate details of the soldiers' uniforms, weapons, and equipment are beautifully rendered in the copperplate engraving technique, which was popular during this period for its ability to produce detailed and accurate images. The standing salute exercise was an essential part of military drill, designed to instill discipline, respect, and readiness for action. The soldiers' unwavering attention and precise execution of the exercise demonstrate their dedication and commitment to their duty. This print is not only a valuable historical record of military life during the Napoleonic Wars but also a testament to the artistic skill and craftsmanship of William Hogarth and the engravers of the time. It is a reminder of the importance of discipline, precision, and tradition in the military and the enduring legacy of the English Army.
