After Benjamin West (1738-1820), The Battle Of La Hogue, Early 19th Century, Oil On Sheet Metal

Nice old oval painting after Benjamin West (1738-1820).

It depicts with great finesse the famous Battle of La Hogue, a decisive naval confrontation between the French and Anglo-Dutch fleets in 1692.

This historic scene, charged with emotion and dynamism, is rendered with exceptional attention to detail.

This picture was painted on sheet metal in the early 19th century.

This is a faithful reproduction of Benjamin West's original work, executed with remarkable precision.

The colors, although slightly muted by the passage of time, retain their original brilliance.

The figures, ships and wave movements are reproduced with striking realism, a testament to the talent of the artist who worked on this piece.

The frame of the painting is a brass hoop, both aesthetically pleasing and functional.

This metal frame holds the sheet metal plate securely while adding a touch of elegance.

At the rear, a wooden reinforcement has been added to guarantee stability and durability.

This ingenious system ensures that the picture remains in perfect condition, even after many years.

The dimensions of this unique piece are 70 cm wide and 55 cm high.

Its oval format and brass frame make it both decorative and historical, perfect for art, history or marine enthusiasts.
