"Huzzaar N:7," an 1830-1835 hand-colored lithograph by Willem Charles Magnenat depicts a mounted soldier, showcasing the detailed uniforms of the era. The soldier is shown in full dress, riding a white horse and wielding a sword, against a simple background. The detailed rendering of the uniform, including the elaborate headdress and sash, is a testament to the artist's keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the essence of military dress. This small-scale piece, now in the Rijksmuseum, is an important example of 19th-century military portraiture.
