"Sitting Cavalier" is a black chalk drawing by Cornelis Troost, a Dutch artist active during the 18th century. It is a study for a larger composition and depicts a seated man in a 1700's fashion, wearing a tricorne hat and a long coat. This drawing is likely a preparatory sketch for a portrait or historical scene, showcasing Troost's skill in capturing the human form. The drawing is held in the Städel Museum, Frankfurt, Germany. The work showcases Troost's distinct style of drawing with delicate lines and subtle shading, giving a glimpse into the process of his art-making.
