This drawing by Philip Wouverman, titled "Cavalry in Battle," depicts a dynamic scene of horsemen in the midst of battle. The artist uses brown washes to create a sense of movement and energy in the composition, with figures and horses rendered in a loose and expressive style. The detail of the horsemen's armor and the landscape setting adds to the realism of the piece, making it a compelling example of Wouverman's mastery of depicting military subjects. The drawing, currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, provides a glimpse into the artist's skill and the world of 17th century military life.
