The Waterloo Chamber

Paragraph Title 1

The Waterloo Chamber was created to display the portraits by Sir Thomas Lawrence, which had been commissioned by George IV to commemorate the Battle of Waterloo and the establishment of peace in Europe in its aftermath.

In this short film we created for The Royal Collection, Surveyor of The Queen’s Pictures, Desmond Shawe-Taylor, introduces the Waterloo Chamber (view clients website).

Paragraph Title 2

The portraits of monarchs, warriors and diplomats which adorn the walls were painted by Sir Thomas Lawrence and are a towering achievement of British art. Two hundred years later the room remains a symbol of royal magnificence and national celebration.
