Description

Español: El lienzo representa la batalla de Lepanto, que se libró el día 7 de octubre de 1571 en el golfo de Lepanto frente a la ciudad de Naupacto (o Lepanto, del italiano y ahí al español), situado entre el Peloponeso y Epiro, en la Grecia continental. Se enfrentaron en ella los turcos otomanos contra una coalición cristiana, llamada Liga Santa, formada por el Reino de España, los Estados Pontificios, la República de Venecia, la Orden de Malta, la República de Génova y el Ducado de Saboya. Los cristianos resultaron vencedores, salvándose sólo 30 galeras turcas. Se frenó así el expansionismo turco por el Mediterráneo occidental. En esta batalla participó Miguel de Cervantes, que resultó herido, sufriendo la pérdida de movilidad de su mano izquierda, lo que valió el sobrenombre de «manco de Lepanto». Este escritor, que estaba muy orgulloso de haber combatido allí, la calificó como «la más memorable y alta ocasión que vieron los pasados siglos, ni esperan ver los venideros».
