Painting Description
"Battaglia Fra Re Giovanni Sobieski III e i Turchi" (Battle Between King John III Sobieski and the Turks) is a historical painting by Flemish artist Pauwel Casteels, depicting the renowned military engagement between the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, under the command of King John III Sobieski, and the Ottoman Empire. The artwork captures the momentous Battle of Vienna in 1683, where Sobieski led a decisive charge that turned the tide against the besieging Ottoman forces, lifting the siege and marking a pivotal point in the struggle between European powers and the Ottoman Empire.
