"Wellington and Blucher, Meeting After the Battle of Waterloo" is a mixed-method engraving created by Lumb Stocks, based on the original artwork by Daniel Maclise. Published by the Art Union of London in 1875, this piece captures the historic moment when Field Marshal Arthur Wellesley, the 1st Duke of Wellington, and Field Marshal Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher, Prince of Wahlstatt, met following the decisive Battle of Waterloo on June 18, 1815. The battle, which marked the end of the Napoleonic Wars, saw a coalition of armies, notably those led by Wellington and Blücher, defeat Napoleon Bonaparte's French forces.

The engraving is notable for its intricate detail and historical significance, as it commemorates the alliance between the British and Prussian military leaders whose cooperation was instrumental in securing victory. Lumb Stocks, an eminent engraver of the Victorian era, translated Maclise's original painting into a detailed print that was made accessible to the public through the Art Union, an organization dedicated to promoting the fine arts in Britain.

Printed on wove paper with margins, the engraving is characterized by its fine lines and attention to the textures of the subjects' attire and the surrounding environment. The scene is set against the backdrop of the aftermath of the battle, with the wearied yet triumphant expressions of the two generals conveying the relief and significance of their triumph.

Daniel Maclise (1806–1870), the Irish painter behind the original work, was renowned for his historical and literary scenes. His ability to capture the essence of pivotal moments in history made his work highly sought after during his lifetime. The original painting, upon which this engraving is based, was celebrated for its grand scale and dramatic representation of the encounter between the two military heroes.

This engraving not only serves as a testament to the artistic skill of both Maclise and Stocks but also stands as a visual document of a turning point in European history. It remains an important work for both art historians and those interested in the Napoleonic era, offering insight into the ways in which art has been used to commemorate and mythologize historical events.
