The artwork captures a significant moment during the Peninsular War, which was part of the Napoleonic Wars, depicting the presentation of English prisoners to the French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte following the Siege of Astorga in 1809.
Hippolyte Lecomte (1781–1857) was a French painter known for his historical and military scenes, often portraying events from the Napoleonic era. His works are characterized by their attention to detail, historical accuracy, and the vivid portrayal of their subjects.

The Siege of Astorga itself was a part of the larger Peninsular War, which saw British, Portuguese, and Spanish forces fighting against the French occupation of the Iberian Peninsula.
