"Esquisse pour la Bataille de Campo Graudi" (Sketch for the Battle of Campo Grande) is a preparatory work by the Brazilian artist Pedro Américo de Figueiredo e Melo, commonly known as Pedro Américo. Born in 1843 in Areia, Paraíba, Pedro Américo was a prominent figure in 19th-century Brazilian art, known for his historical paintings, as well as his work as a novelist, professor, and scientist.

This particular sketch is part of the artist's process in creating one of his grand historical canvases, a genre for which he is particularly renowned. Pedro Américo's historical works are characterized by their dramatic flair, meticulous detail, and romanticized portrayal of key events in Brazilian history. The Battle of Campo Grande, fought on August 16, 1867, during the Paraguayan War (also known as the War of the Triple Alliance), was a significant conflict in which Brazilian forces were victorious against Paraguayan troops.

The sketch likely served as a compositional study, allowing Pedro Américo to arrange the elements of the scene before executing the final painting. Such sketches were crucial in his process, as they helped him to establish the narrative, the placement of figures, and the overall dynamism of the scene. Through his works, Pedro Américo aimed to capture the essence of the events and to evoke a sense of national pride and historical consciousness among his viewers.

While "Esquisse pour la Bataille de Campo Graudi" is a less well-known piece compared to some of Pedro Américo's finished paintings, such as "Independência ou Morte!" (Independence or Death!) or "Batalha do Avaí" (Battle of Avaí), it represents an important insight into the artist's method and the development of his grand historical narratives. The final painting that resulted from this sketch would contribute to the visual culture and historical memory of Brazil, reflecting the artist's role in shaping the national identity through the arts.

As an artist, Pedro Américo's legacy is marked by his academic style and his influence on the development of historical painting in Brazil. His works are preserved in various institutions, including the Museu Nacional de Belas Artes in Rio de Janeiro and the Museu Paulista in São Paulo. The sketch "Esquisse pour la Bataille de Campo Graudi" remains a testament to his artistic process and his dedication to depicting the pivotal moments of Brazilian history.
