Battle on a Bridge: Knights in Armor (Heraclius Slays the King of Persia)
Armored knights in red, green and blue fight on and around a stone bridge over a river, with a gold-armored rider at the center raising a sword. Spears, shields and banners fill the crowded foreground, while a distant army and towers rise against a pale blue sky.
