Battle of the Arbelles" is a masterful painting by French artist Jacques Courtois, also known as Guercino (1621–1676). Courtois gained recognition for his exceptional depictions of detailed battle scenes that evoked a sense of action, dynamism, and power. His works are noted for their exceptional skill in capturing movement and the raw energy of warfare.

This particular piece, "The Battle of the Arbelles," is one such representation, and represents the typical Courtois style. Although there isn't a specific date with this painting, it is suggested that it was created in the latter part of Courtois's career when his brushwork became looser and color paler, compared to his earlier pieces. The painting reflects a chaotic and violent imagery of a battle scene in vivid detail. The soldiers' expressions, the flurry of the firearms, and the distressed horses bring to life a gripping scene of 17th-century warfare.

As with many battle scenes from this period, the specific conflict depicted is difficult to identify. The title could allude to the Battle of Arbela, a significant conflict within the Wars of Alexander the Great, although Courtois was known to portray a mixture of his own impressions alongside historical elements in his pieces.

"The Battle of the Arbelles" is an enduring testament to Courtois's ability in painting epic narratives of war and conflict, demonstrating his solid position among the noted battle painters of the Baroque period.
