Michal "Kadrinazi" placed a fine paint by Paulus von Hillegaert in his blog

My favorite painter is Peeter Snayers. His paints are always full of details. And one of the most favorite one is the Siege of Julich 1621-22. It presents details of the Spanish fortifications around the city & a cavalry cornet.

| Snayers P. A siege of a city, thought to be the siege of Gulik by the Spanish under the command of Hendrik van den Bergh, 5 September 1621-3 February 1622 (click to enlarge) |
Snayers if of course great and I posted few fragments of his paintings on my blog but I dislike the way he painted faces (those odd, long noses...) and that's why from time to time I need to put him at rest and post other Dutchman ;)
ОтветитьУдалитьMaybe he painted the real faces? -)))
ОтветитьУдалитьHopefully not - look at the faces of Lithuanian light cavalry at his painting of battle of Kircholm...
