Militairen te paard 1827 - 1894

“Militairen te paard” (Soldiers on horseback) is a series of 12 black and white illustrations created by Dutch artist M. Hemeleers-van Houter in 1827. The work depicts various military figures on horseback in different poses and action, each with a caption describing the scene. The artwork demonstrates a detailed understanding of the anatomy of both human and equine figures and is considered a fine example of 19th-century Dutch illustration. Currently, this artwork can be viewed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
