Pittore napoletano del XVII secolo

oil on canvas

The work is an important testimony to the most archaic phase of the battle genre and seems to outline the early characteristics of the youthful activity of Salvator Rosa (Naples, 1615 - Rome, 1673) or the late production of Aniello Falcone (Naples, 1600 or 1607 – 1665), which marked its initial development. The canvas could be dated between 1635 and 1639.
