"Der Graf von Habsburg überlässt dem Priester sein Pferd" (The Count of Habsburg gives his horse to the priest) is a painting by Franz Ludwig Catel, created in 1818, which is on display at the Städel Museum. The painting depicts a count on horseback handing his mount to a priest while another man, likely the count's servant, holds a second horse. A young woman stands to the right, possibly the count's daughter. The scene is set against a backdrop of rugged mountains and dense forest. The painting's theme of religious piety and nobility is a common subject in 19th-century German art.
