English: A detail from the Argentine painter's oil on canvas depicting the Paraguayan trench at the Battle of Curupayty (22 September 1866). Pouring out a hail of grape and canister shot from a hastily erected earthwork, the Paraguayans inflicted the worst defeat the Allies (Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay) ever sustained.
