  • 1835.07.20/ maison de ventes : Phillips (Harry). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[This chef d'oeuvre, a Battle betwixt Cavalry and Infantry, is one of the most exquisite productions of this elegant minded Artist. It formerly graced the Gallery of the Prince of Orange at the Hague, where it occupied the place of honour; and was esteemed by every Connoisseur as the most distinguished work of art of the Flemish School, in that Collection. The Group consists of Cavalry Officers, and Soldiers in severe conflict. The principal figure (an Officer) is mounted on a pie-bald Horse of great beauty; in the right corner, a mottled grey Horse is just fallen, and his Rider lies dead on his face. Above, in the distance, is a ruined Tower, beautifully lighted, with a number of men rushing towards the scene of action; and a Charge of Cavalry, finely varied and delicately pencilled, fills up the composition on the right: the left is closed by another charge upon Infantry, behind the flying Ensign Bearer. This part of the group is replete with the most varied action and circumstance. Nothing can surpass the expression of the active combatants, or of the wounded men and horses on the ground (Wouvermans)|This chef d'oeuvre, a Battle betwixt Cavalry and Infantry, is one of the most exquisite productions of this elegant minded Artist.
