"The Death of Nelson at the Battle of Trafalgar; and Wellington and Blücher, Meeting after the Battle of Waterloo" is a pair of monumental history paintings by the Irish artist Daniel Maclise (1806–1870). These works were engraved by Charles William Sharpe (1818–1899) and Lumb Stocks (1812–1892), two prominent engravers of the time, which helped to disseminate Maclise's vision to a wider audience. The paintings are significant for their grand scale and the ambitious undertaking of depicting two of the most pivotal moments in British military history.

Daniel Maclise was renowned for his historical and literary scenes, and these works are considered among his masterpieces. "The Death of Nelson" captures the dramatic final moments of Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson, Britain's celebrated naval hero, during the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. Maclise's composition is noted for its intricate detail and the emotional intensity of the figures surrounding Nelson as he succumbs to his injuries aboard the HMS Victory.

The companion piece, "Wellington and Blücher, Meeting after the Battle of Waterloo," commemorates the encounter between the Duke of Wellington and Field Marshal Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher after the defeat of Napoleon's forces in 1815. This work is equally lauded for its historical accuracy and the portrayal of the camaraderie between the two generals, symbolizing the coalition victory.

Both paintings were commissioned to decorate the Royal Gallery in the Palace of Westminster, where they were intended to celebrate British valor and statesmanship. Maclise's meticulous research for accuracy in uniform and detail, along with his skillful rendering of the human figure, make these works a valuable visual record of the era as well as a testament to his artistic prowess.

These historical scenes by Maclise not only reflect the Victorian fascination with the romanticism of heroism and battle but also serve as a reminder of the national pride and identity that were shaped by these significant military victories. The engravings by Sharpe and Stocks ensured that the imagery and the patriotic sentiment they evoked were accessible to the Victorian public, further cementing the legacy of these battles in British cultural memory.
