About the piece
Painted in 1836 by the celebrated Polish artist Piotr Michałowski, this work showcases a mastery of equestrian subjects. The hussars, mounted on powerful white and bay horses, are rendered with a sense of urgent movement against a brooding, atmospheric backdrop, exemplifying the Romantic spirit of 19th-century military art.
