The Capture of Bonaparte's Carriage - A Glimpse into the Defeat at Waterloo
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print, we are transported back to the historic Battle of Waterloo on June 18th, 1815. The scene unfolds with Major von Keller as he valiantly seizes Napoleon Bonaparte's carriage, paper documents, and treasure amidst the chaos of war. Engraved by Matthew Dubourg and based on John Heaviside Clark's original artwork, this colored engraving offers a vivid depiction of a pivotal moment in history. The image showcases the intensity and desperation that characterized Napoleon's flight from his adversaries. The majestic horses gallop furiously as they pull the fleeing coach through smoke-filled battlefields. It is an extraordinary sight to behold - a symbol of both triumph for Major von Keller and defeat for one of history's most renowned military leaders. This print not only captures a significant event but also serves as a testament to human resilience in times of conflict. It reminds us that even in moments where empires crumble and destinies shift, there are individuals who rise above adversity to secure victory. Displayed at the Musee de l'Armee in Brussels, Belgium, this artwork invites viewers to reflect upon the tumultuous era known as the Napoleonic Wars. Through its intricate details and masterful execution, it transports us back two centuries ago when nations clashed on European soil.
