This print captures the intense Battle of Salamonda, which took place on May 16th, 1809. From James Jenkins' renowned publication "The Martial Achievements of Great Britain and Her Allies from 1799 to 1815" this engraving by Thomas Sutherland brings to life the heroic events that unfolded during this historic conflict. In this scene, we witness a landscape engulfed in chaos as cannon fire illuminates the sky. The deafening sounds of gunfire echo through the air as infantry soldiers valiantly fight for their country's honor. Each brushstroke expertly conveys the tension and determination etched onto their faces.
