Abstract
The bicentenary of the Battle of Waterloo appears to have caught the imagination of curators across the UK. The Waterloo 200 website lists no fewer than 77 exhibitions and events happening this year: although it would not be feasible to visit (let alone review) all of them, it is worth pausing to note their variety in terms of focus and scale. Exhibitions range from blockbusters at national institutions, such as those at Windsor Castle and the British Museum (reviewed here), to smaller affairs in more specific museums.
