EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page from Wellington's Victory, Op. 91, a musical composition published by S. A. Steiner & Comp. Vienna and engraved by the Austrian School. Held in the Staatsbibliothek in Berlin, Germany, this engraving depicts an extraordinary moment in history. The title page represents Ludwig van Beethoven's masterpiece created to commemorate the Duke of Wellington's triumph over the French at the Battle of Vitoria in Spain on June 21st, 1813. Dedicated to the Prince Regent (later George IV), this composition immortalizes Arthur Wellesley, also known as the 1st Duke of Wellington. Intricately designed with elements that evoke heroism and military prowess, this artwork portrays a scene filled with action and intensity.

It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring spirit during times of war while showcasing Beethoven's ability to translate emotions into musical scores that resonate through time.
