"On Horseback: A Glimpse into Equestrian History" Step back in time and witness the captivating world of horseback riding through a collection of remarkable artworks. From the Officer of the 16th Lancers, elegantly mounted on his steed in 1900, to Caesar Crossing the Rubicon with an unknown artist's touch in 1890, these images transport us to different eras. The Midnight Steeplechase near Melton Melbury captures the exhilarating finish of a thrilling race, its creator remaining anonymous but leaving behind an electrifying scene frozen in time. Meanwhile, Mathias Zundt's The Abduction of Hieronymus Paumgartner from ca. 1545 immerses us in a tale filled with intrigue and suspense. Masters such as Master of the Die skillfully depict historical events like The Victory of Scipio over Syphax or The Triumph of Scipio who rides on a horse followed by captured slaves. These works offer glimpses into ancient triumphs and conquests that shaped civilizations. Maria Catharina Prestel's Three Horsemen from ca. 1770-94 showcases equestrian beauty while Master I. S presents Man on Horseback holding a Falcon from ca. 1525-50 - both capturing moments where man and animal harmoniously unite. Marcantonio Raimondi takes us further back with his creations: Scipio Africanus on horseback preceded by a foot soldier holding a standard; Horatius Cocles trampling a fallen soldier; Titus and Vespanian both confidently astride their horses - all masterpieces reflecting power, bravery, and heroism. Lastly, Jacques Courtois' Aiding the Wounded after Battle transports us to scenes where compassion meets courage as soldiers tend to those injured during war - reminding us that even amidst chaos, humanity prevails. Through this diverse selection of artworks, we witness the timeless bond between humans and horses.
