Mystery Art

This painting has been my desktop wallpaper for a few years now, but I don't know who painted it. I originally found it gracing the home page of the University of Texas Classics Department, but they've since changed it.

It's got to be a depiction of the Fall of Troy, based on the armor and weapons.

If anyone out there in cyberspace knows the provenance of this work, I'd surely appreciate it if you'd just enter it in the comments section. Thanks.
