If you had some b&w photos of your scene, it would certainly look like those you'd find in history books. Very well done!! I especially like the trees.

Federico, your painting of the leather and fabric is impressive! What are the trees made from?

Thanks to you all for the comments. Frederick, the trees are from little birch branches of Italian mountains (Alps), very close to my house.
