Battle before Acre
Mounted warriors rise above a crowded field of spears, shields and fallen bodies. The printed caption identifies the scene as Battle before Acre, beside Bennett’s account of an assault on the city. The plate’s dense movement distinguishes it from a generic cavalry study. A small signature is present, but the individual design and engraving credits are not securely resolved here.
