Battle of Anghiari - My painting

After thorough  inspiration from the cartoon of the Battle of Anghiari. I took it upon myself to paint of scene from the familiar battle of Custers Last Stand or the Battle of the Little Bighorn. You can see the reference I made in the central theme of the painting where the one horse rears over the fallen horse in a circular composition. I contemplated entwining the horses but chose not to complicate that part of the scene. Instead, I made of heap of figures and mass of fighting Native Americans. The painting is oil on canvas and 30"x48". You can also see some other influences from paintings that I implemented into the scene.
