About this work

This ink and wash drawing shows a chaotic medieval battle in a city street, with a mounted knight charging with a lance across a field of fallen soldiers. A central figure in a loose tunic and cap raises a sword amid the dead and wounded, while a cathedral-like building and armed onlookers fill the background. The work is by Luc-Olivier Merson, dated 1889, and is titled « Châteaupers à la rescousse », an illustration for the title vignette of chapter VII of book ten.
