About the piece
Painted in the mid-17th century by Philips Wouwerman, this work showcases the artist's celebrated mastery of equestrian subjects. A luminous white horse commands the center of the composition, set against the dark, detailed interior of a village forge and an expansive, towering sky that suggests the atmospheric beauty of the Dutch landscape.
