Preferably battles that happened after 1815.
Bonus: do you think we'll see paintings like this of modern conflicts or is it a thing of the past?
Pic: Danish-Prussian war of 1864

8th brigade at the battle of Dybbol, 1864
Battle of Vimy Ridge 1917
9th Lancers at Audregnies, 1914
2nd Battle of Ypres, 1915
Eastern front, Second World War
Honestly not sure if this depicts a specific battle.
>Bonus: do you think we'll see paintings like this of modern conflicts or is it a thing of the past?
Probably in the past. Cameras tend to remove the need for paintings to document it.
IDK if emchanized warfare is the best subject for art anyways

I have this one of the Battle of Takur Ghar in 2002
Battle of Mogadishu
Also the Battle of Mogadishu
no BBQ americans?
I guess military art fell out of favor because modern warfare is hardly classy and to many it's even boring much more susceptible to Jarhead-like deconstruction.
But this I like. Falklands. Looks like the battle of the famous bayonet charge.
Battle of Avai, War of the triple alliance, 1868
Battle of Acosta Ñu, War of the triple alliance, 1869
>Danish troops
>Byzantine flag
Am I missing something
Why is modern art such shit?
The same reason why modern animation is shit; it's done on computers rather than on paper.
...
Soviet-Polish war.
the wars are a lot less justified or "glorious".
Just look at the pics of americans gunning down hapless africans. Hardly heroic stuff.
I'd like to see a big painting of Iranians fighting Iraqis or something of that sort.
A repeat? At least post the reproduction.
My apologies. I posted it without looking at the thread.
Battle of White Mountain 8 November 1620
Mort Kunstler and Don Troiani are great, albeit they're basically men born out of time.
Stonewall Jackson rallying his men and leading a Confederate counter attack.
Battle of Cedar Mountain 9 August 1862.
>this is the image
SMS Seydlitz in the midst of the Battle of Jutland
Sevastopol I believe.
Nah, just the colors of the "Danish 8th Brigade 20th Regiment"
Painting hasn't been cleaned.

They were made for refrence, not neo classical pieces.
