About the piece
Painted around 1820 by Aleksander Orłowski, this work depicts two Kalmyk horsemen paused in a vast landscape. The figures are dressed in saturated red and green coats, accented by fur-trimmed headwear and traditional weaponry. Orłowski's focus on the distinct attire and equipment of the riders reflects the 19th-century European fascination with the cultures of the Eurasian steppe.
