About the piece
Dated 1651, this work by Pieter Meulener is a classic example of the Flemish Golden Age tradition of battle painting. The artist skillfully handles the complex arrangement of charging horses and soldiers in the heat of combat, set against a vast, atmospheric sky that adds a sense of grand scale to the rural confrontation.
