Waterloo Chamber

Lawrence painted Pope Pius VII in Rome in 1819. The painting, part of a series commissioned by George IV from Lawrence for the Waterloo Chamber, still hangs in the same room it was created for at Windsor Castle today.

The Waterloo Chamber, dating from 1830–31, is a large room in Windsor Castle dedicated to the military defeat of the French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte by British, Prussian, Russian, and Austrian forces under the command of the Duke of Wellington at the Battle of Waterloo.
