AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Battle Scene
French school (19th century)
Style: historical Romanticism
Technique: Oil on canvas
The scene depicts an intense wartime episode featuring an officer mounted on a horse in full action, advancing with determination among fallen soldiers and combatants in the background. The composition conveys dynamism and drama through the movement of the rearing horse and the firm attitude of the rider, who stands as the central figure. The atmospheric treatment, with a background shrouded in smoke and earthy tones, enhances the sense of chaos and tension typical of the battlefield. The brushwork is loose yet precise, especially in the secondary figures, achieving depth and a coherent visual narrative, very characteristic of 19th-century French historical painting, influenced by the romantic taste for heroic and epic episodes.
The work features a carved and gilded wooden frame, of notable presence, with relief vegetal decoration and stepped moldings. The frame shows a patina appropriate to its age, with small wear and marks typical of the passage of time, which do not diminish its decorative value and add authenticity to the overall piece.
The frame comes as a gift. It may be damaged during transport even if it is properly packaged.
