    The no-host Oscars turned out very well.

    The Siege of Tortona

    (best viewed by Google Chrome, with Google Translate added to chrome://extensions, which can automatically translate most pages as necessary) has info and links that point to info about this enormous painting.

    https://books.google.com/books?id=VY0ZAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA338&q=Gastaldi#v=onepage&q=Gastaldi&f=false 

    all have info (the first 2 in Italian; again, Chrome can automatically translate) about this artist, perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the first URL. This is the first work by him used here.

     

    Again, a larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #2146 (February 25, 2019) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment.

    When I told my wife how, early in the Battle of Antietam, the Texas Brigade counterattacked with extra ferocity because they had just stopped marching and started cooking breakfast when the Union First Corps attacked, she replied, “Oh, they hadn’t had their coffee.”
