Oil painting depicting an attack by Austrian hussars, attributed to Alexander Ritter (1820–1902) Oil on canvas with a light gray ground. Hussars wearing fur caps and dark blue uniforms from the period of 1866 are attacking. In an elaborately embossed and gilded decorative frame; on the reverse, the label of the gilder Friedrich Lindner. Partially slightly damaged; signs of age and wear. Painting dimensions: 40 x 66 cm. Frame dimensions: 66 x 93 cm. Offers an interesting insight into the painting techniques of the period, featuring a black brush sketch and a brown underpainting. Possibly a gift to a South German in recognition of his loyalty to the Austrian alliance during the War of 1866.
