Original painting by Catalan artist Joseph Cusachs i Cusachs (Montpellier 1851 - Barcelona 1908). His specialisation in depicting military subjects from the period in which he lived, combined with his undeniable talent for drawing, composition and painting, elevated him to one of the most important figures of the so-called Catalan school and the peninsular realist school.
