Of possible interest:

From The Spectator, London: August 30, 1890, p. 262:

"On Tuesday [i. e. 26 August 1890], the Duke of Cambridge unveiled the Waterloo Monument erected in the new cemetery at Evere, a small suburb of Brussels. The monument is a sarcophagus, nine metres in length and four metres in width, made of red Treves sandstone, "on which helmets, flags, and other warlike emblems in bronze are disposed in masses." Three bronze lions guard the base, and at the top a figure of Britannia, holding her casque in one hand and the trident in the other, kneels at an altar. In the vault below are deposited the remains of English officers who either fell at Waterloo or died afterwards of their wounds, and who were originally buried in certain old cemeteries within the town. To erect the monument, a sum of about £'2,500 was subscribed in England and Belgium, while the Municipality of Brussels gave the site, and has undertaken the preservation of the vault and the sculpture above it. The sculptor, Count de Lalaing, whose mother is English, and who served two years in the British Navy, most generously gave his servioes for nothing. The ceremony has for a moment reminded England of the Battle of Waterloo, but it is obvious that no real interest is excited. Our people, except in Scotland and Ireland, are devoid of anything like a "historic conscience," and seem utterly incapable of experiencing the sensations which are so eagerly cultivated by the Americans, the French, the Germans, and the Swiss."
