EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the intensity and chaos of Loudon's Cavalry Charge at Kunersdorf in 1759. This historic battle, depicted in black and white, showcases the power and might of the allied forces against Frederick the Great. General Loudon, commanding the Austrian contingent, led his troops fearlessly into battle. In this engraving from Cassells Illustrated Universal History, bodies lie strewn across the battlefield as horses charge forward with determination. The image evokes a sense of bloodshed and carnage that was all too common during this era. Baron Ernst Gideon von Laudohn, also known as Ernst Gideon von Laudon or Ernst Gideon von Loudon, is prominently featured on horseback amidst the chaos. His leadership and strategic prowess played a crucial role in securing victory for the allies. This piece of art transports us back to a time when battles were fought with bravery and sacrifice. It serves as a reminder of the immense courage displayed by soldiers who risked their lives for their country. The print not only documents an important moment in history but also highlights how art can immortalize significant events. Through its detailed depiction of war-torn landscapes and charging cavalrymen, it allows us to reflect on past conflicts while appreciating both the artistic skill involved in creating such works and their historical significance.
