Gevecht tussen cavaleristen en infanteristen 1528 - 1583

Etienne Delaune's "Gevecht tussen cavaleristen en infanteristen" (Combat Between Cavalry and Infantry) is a detailed black and white engraving depicting a chaotic scene of battle. Created between 1528 and 1583, the print showcases Delaune's skill in capturing the intensity of a military conflict. The composition is dynamic, with figures and horses intertwined in a flurry of action, highlighting the artist's interest in realism and the depiction of movement. Currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, this small but powerful artwork offers a glimpse into the artistic and historical context of 16th-century Europe.
