Description from the seller

Spectacular reply after King Henri II's parade shield, France (Henri II - 1519-1559)

Detailed repoussed copper replica from the late 19th century based on the original.

Beautiful article that looks magnificent in a corridor or above a fireplace.

63 cm x 46 cm (approximately)

I believe that the battlefield scene in the center depicts Hannibal and the Carthaginians' victory over the Romans at Cannes in 216 BC, which could here be interpreted as an allusion to France's struggle against the Holy Roman Empire in the 16th century.
