[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 4528773, member: 56"]The battle looks Napoleonic to me. My idle guess for the drawing is the 1820s or '30s. I still can't tell from these pictures if it is original or not. Why not make it a condition of the sale that if it is not an original drawing you can return it, specifying that you will remove it from the frame to confirm one way or the other.
