Three Men standing beside a Horse, from the Scherzi 1725 - 1780

"Three Men standing beside a Horse, from the Scherzi" is an etching created by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo between 1725 and 1780. The print depicts a group of three men standing beside a horse. One of the men is mounted on the horse, while the other two stand below, interacting with him. The light, airy style of the etching is characteristic of Tiepolo's work, which often featured elegant figures and whimsical scenes. This particular etching is from a series of works known as the "Scherzi," or "Jests," which are known for their playful and sometimes satirical nature. The etching is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
