Description

The Defence of Cádiz Against the English Oil Painting after Francisco de Zurbarán, circa late 20th Century.

Francisco de Zurbarán painted the original in 1634 which is on display at the Museo del Prado, Madrid

The painting shows the Spanish preparing their defences just before the arrival of Edward Cecil's Cádiz expedition of 1625. In the left foreground is the city's governor Fernando Girón giving orders to his subordinates, including the deputy field commander Diego Ruiz. In the background are the English troops landing in front of the El Puntal fort in the Bay of Cádiz.

The oil painting is on canvas with craquelure to appear aged and signed along the lower right. The canvas is ornately framed with gold finish.
