A Battlefield: Trumpeters Sounding a Recall is a 1700 oil by Unknown, a Rococo painting work, held at National Galleries Scotland.
This painting shows a battlefield with many people and horses. Some people are lying on the ground, and others are standing or sitting. There are also some trees and hills in the background. The sky is cloudy and gray. In the foreground, there are two men on horseback who appear to be trumpeters. They are sounding a recall, which means they are signaling for the soldiers to return to their positions. The painting is done in oil paint and has a lot of detail, especially in the clothing and facial expressions of the people.
