Combats and Triumphs No. 8

Etienne Delaune

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image of a chaotic battle scene. The image depicts a long rectangular scene crowded with multiple nude male and female figures. The figures are engaged in combat, with some brandishing weapons like swords, bows, and spears. Some figures are on the ground, while others are standing or running. A large centaur is positioned near the centre of the image. The scene is densely packed with a sense of intense action. The background of the scene is dark. The image has a detailed engraving style with shading and textures. The image is surrounded by a plain off-white border.
