Alvar Sanchez beledigt Gonzalo Gomez en wordt door hem verslagen 1612

"Alvar Sanchez beledigt Gonzalo Gomez en wordt door hem verslagen" is a 1612 etching by Italian artist Antonio Tempesta. The image depicts a dramatic scene of battle between two knights on horseback, with the defeated knight lying under his fallen steed. This print is a dynamic representation of the battle between chivalry and honor, and the theme of a noble knight triumphing over an aggressor. The etching is a fine example of Tempesta's masterful skill in depicting action and movement, and is notable for its detailed representation of both the figures and the landscape. The print is now in the collection of the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
