EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Fitzroy H J Somerset, 1st Baron Raglan, a distinguished British soldier who played a significant role in several historic events. Born in 1788 and passing away in 1855, Lord Raglan served on Wellington's staff from 1808 to 1812 during the Napoleonic Wars. However, his life took a dramatic turn at the Battle of Waterloo when he lost his sword arm. Despite this life-altering injury, Lord Raglan's determination and leadership skills propelled him to become the Commander-in-Chief of British troops during the Crimean War. It was under his command that the infamous order for the Charge of the Light Brigade at Balaclava was given in 1854. The engraving beautifully captures Lord Raglan's resolute spirit as an amputee soldier leading British forces into battle. His unwavering commitment to duty and bravery are evident through his remarkable journey from being wounded at Waterloo to commanding troops on a global stage. This print is not just an image; it represents an extraordinary individual who overcame adversity and left an indelible mark on history. Lord Raglan's legacy as a commander-in-chief during one of Britain's most challenging military campaigns will forever be remembered alongside iconic moments like the Charge of the Light Brigade.
