EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Memorial Eagle, a commemorative statue erected by the French Military Club in honor of the approximately 25,000 French soldiers who lost their lives during the Battle of Waterloo on 18th June 1815. The monument stands proudly at the site where the last old guard fell, and stands at a height of 15ft. The statue is cast in bronze, a testament to the enduring legacy of those who made the ultimate sacrifice. The Victorian-era monument, completed in the year 1900, serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery and sacrifice of the French soldiers in one of the most significant battles in European history. The eagle, a symbol of power and freedom, gazes proudly into the distance, representing the indomitable spirit of the French military. The Memorial Eagle is a powerful and moving tribute to the lives lost during the Battle of Waterloo, and continues to stand as a symbol of remembrance and respect for the fallen soldiers.
