About the piece

This 1809 masterpiece by Antoine-Jean Gros captures the young Prince Boris Yusupov in a moment of dramatic action. Dressed in exoticized Eastern hunting attire—complete with a leopard-skin cape, turban with an aigrette, and a bow—the prince sits atop a powerful, rearing chestnut stallion against a moody, atmospheric landscape.
