About this work

View in bird's-eye perspective on the valley between the places Avigliano on the left in the middle ground and San Ambrogio on the right in the foreground, with the fight between Spanish and French troops that took place there on 10 July 1630. The French troops, who were victorious, were led by the Marquis of Effiat and Longjumeau, whose portrait also (probably) appears at the very top, surrounded by weaponry and banners. At the very bottom also his coat of arms.
