"A Turkish Prince on Horseback" is an etching by Dutch artist Pieter Soutman dating from 1615-1630. The print depicts a Turkish prince on horseback, surrounded by his retinue, in a dynamic and detailed composition. The use of hatching and cross-hatching creates a sense of depth and texture, bringing life to the figures and horses. The artwork showcases the skill of Soutman, known for his masterful depictions of historical and military scenes. The artwork is held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and is a prime example of 17th-century Dutch etching.
