Antique Hungarian Turkish Orientalist Battle Scene

This antique Orientalist oil painting on canvas depicts a dramatic battle scene with soldiers on horseback and foot. Stretcher measures 42.5" by 29.25" by 0.75". Giltwood and gesso frame is likely original to the painting and measures 48" by 35.5" by 3". Stretcher carries the stamped hallmark for the Iparmuveszeti Muzeum (the Museum of Applied Arts) in Budapest Hungary, indicating the piece was authenticated and approved for export in accordance with Hungarian law. Canvas was relined many years ago, prior to export from Hungary. We have not found a signature. This painting likely dates from the late nineteenth century. There are gesso losses at each corner and in a few other spots. This item resides with our client on the Upper East Side of Manhattan ( New York City ) and may be seen by appointment.
