A valet taking two horses to bathe, sitting atop one horse in a river, the other beside him to right 1660 - 1664

This etching, "A Valet Taking Two Horses to Bathe" by Stefano della Bella, depicts a man leading two horses through a river. The valet is sitting atop one of the horses, while the second horse follows closely behind. The artwork, created between 1660 and 1664, is a masterful example of della Bella's characteristic style, known for its detailed rendering of figures and animals. The delicate lines and subtle shading create a sense of movement and realism, capturing the horses' graceful stride through the water.
