Very neat, vintage & simple stauton style thanks to my creativity & a very skillful french cabinetmaker. who can ask for more?

I HAVE QUESTION for Thomas Havel or anybody out there who can give me a clear answer: when the creator of this CV describes the archer, he says it "captures on the 3 forward-ajacent squares" what does he refer to?  for example when archer is on c3: can it capture on  c4-c5-c6?? or IS IT  b4-c4-d4?? Thanks for reading this post and for answering
