Pieneman - Ponsonby and Campbell N070446
APSLEY HOUSE, London. Major Generals Sir Frederick Ponsonby (1783-1837) and Sir Colin Campbell (1776-1847) sketched by Jan Willem PIENEMAN in 1821 (WM 1468-1948). Both served at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. Ponsonby was Colonel of the 12th Light Dragoons and was severely wounded following a charge to support the withdrawal of the Union Brigade. Campbell was commandant at Allied headquarters and (other than Wellington) was the only man on the general staff to survive the battle uninjured.

Pieneman - Field Marshal Henry William Paget N070459
APSLEY HOUSE, London. Field Marshal Henry William Paget 1st Marquess of Anglesey (1768-1854) sketched by Jan Willem PIENEMAN in 1821 (WM 1481-1948). Despite personal differences with the Duke of Wellington, in 1815 General Paget commanded the Cavalry Corps. He successfully covered the withdrawal of the Allies following the Battle of Quatre Bras. At the Battle of Waterloo he led a spectacular cavalry charge that turned back D'Erlon's Corps from their assault. One of the last cannon shots fired that day hit Paget in the right leg, necessitating its amputation. According to anecdote he was close to Wellington when he was hit, exclaiming, "By God, sir, I've lost my leg!" To which Wellington replied, "By God, sir, so you have!"

Joseph - Spencer Perceval N070526
APSLEY HOUSE, London. "Spencer Perceval" (1762-1812) by George Francis JOSEPH (1764-1846) Prime Minister 1809 until his assassination. WM 1558-1948.

A successful barrister, he entered Parliament in 1796, became Solicitor General in 1801, Attorney General in 1802, Chancellor of the Exchequer in 1807 and Prime Minister in 1809. On 11 May 1812 he was assassinated in the House of Commons by John Bellingham, a "man of disordered mind".
