HUSSAR CAVALRYMAN at THE BATTLE OF WATERLOO, 1815 |
£595 |
What an tantalising watercolour of a hussar Cavalryman leaning on a tree stump. That stump the “Waterloo Elm” the very tree his commanding officer Wellington stood under during the great battle of Waterloo. To think he was there and survived, I think still more people died in that square mile than at any over battle ?. And he like todays selfie’s wanted to record it, I just wish I could read his name on the back.
At the base of the tree the ate 1815.
