Excellent work by Dalmau, proficient reporting by Armand.

What I also like about it is that if you pay attention you can see see Viggo Mortensen of "Alatriste" fame.

Wow! Outstanding quality. It is now the background image on my computer.

But why (!!!!!!!!) did he paint late 1500's armour on the officers for a battle in the 1640's??!!

Daniel S26 Oct 2011 6:45 a.m. PST

Because his main inspiration is clearly the Alatriste movie rather than the actual event as far as the apperance of the soldiers go. And Alatriste used a ton of left over renaissance props from other movies made in Spain. For example much, perhaps even most, of the cavalry equipment in the final battle scene is from the 1970's movie "Cromwell". So you get a odd mix of gear such as 17th cenutry cuirassier armour worn with burgonets and so on.

Good and correct explanation Daniel S.!
