"A Riding School" is an etching by Stefano della Bella, a prominent Italian artist of the 17th century. The print depicts a lively scene of a horse-riding school, where a man on horseback leaps over a pole while being guided by another man wielding a sword. The composition is dynamic, capturing the energy and skill involved in equestrian training. The numerous figures, the school building, and the two dogs in the background create a sense of depth and vibrancy. This print showcases della Bella's skill in capturing movement and detail, and it is a fine example of the Baroque style.
