EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense scene of the Storming of Badajoz in 1812 during the Napoleonic Wars. Engraved by D. J. Pound after G. W. Terry, this illustration is taken from "England's Battles By Sea And Land" by Lieut Col Williams, published by The London Printing and Publishing Company circa 1890s. In this historical depiction, British soldiers can be seen storming the fortified city of Badajoz in Spain. With their bayonets fixed and determination etched on their faces, they advance towards the enemy lines amidst a chaotic battlefield. The sketch-like quality adds an element of rawness to the image, emphasizing the intensity and brutality of war. The strategic importance of Badajoz during this time cannot be understated as it was a key stronghold for Napoleon's forces in Spain. Led by General Wellington, British troops fought valiantly to capture this crucial fortress despite facing fierce resistance from Spanish defenders. Ken Welsh's masterful reproduction brings forth a sense of realism that transports viewers back to one of history's most tumultuous periods. This print serves as a poignant reminder not only of the bravery displayed by soldiers but also highlights the devastating toll that conflicts like these had on nations involved. Whether you are an avid history enthusiast or simply appreciate powerful imagery, this horizontal scene offers a glimpse into a significant moment in English-Spanish relations during wartime - forever frozen in time through engravings like these.
