Ministerio de la Guerra (Spanish Ministry of War), 1895.
On the wall of a general's office within the Ministry, this picture was on display:

| If this picture hangs in an office within the SPANISH MINISTRY OF WAR, it means Gustavus Adolphus is held by them in high esteem. |
I instantly recognized the picture as Gustav II Adolfs död i slaget vid Lützen (The Death of Gustavus Adolphus at the Battle of Lützen), painted by Swedish officer/artist Carl Wahlbom in 1855.
Though this is most likely to be a replicate: the original can be seen at the Swedish National Museum in Stockholm.
Greetings Your Majesty,
ResponderEliminarI hope you can see this; due to some creepy facebook error, I can see your messages but I can't send my message to you (all it says is the message cannot be sent). I have been somehow busy these days but do not consider this as negligence, I have visited your blog frequently. I apologise for this situation. You know how much I admire your works.
Solemnly,
Uttam Paudél
