Escalante around 1850, this oil on canvas artwork showcases the chaos and devastation that unfolded during this significant event. The artist skillfully captures the essence of warfare as soldiers on horseback engage in fierce combat. The cavalry charges forward with determination, their horses galloping amidst a backdrop of smoke and dust.
