Painting is a 1741 paint by Cornelis Troost, held at Army Museum.
This painting shows a battle scene from Carl XII's time. It's interesting because the artist was suggested to use Carl XII as a subject by Carl Gustaf Tessin, who met the artist while traveling abroad. This meeting likely influenced the artist's work. The artist used a technique to create this painting, similar to what you can learn about by looking up the technique of chiaroscuro.
