Coloured aquatint by M Dubourg after J Heaviside Clark, published by Edward Orme, Bond Street, London 18 January 1817.
This print gives a good impression of the scale of the slaughter at Waterloo. Over 15,000 British and 7,000 Prussian soldiers were killed or wounded in what was a fairly small battle area. French losses were around 25,000 dead or injured, with another 8,000 taken prisoner.
