Anthony van Dyck's "Anton Giulio Brignole-Sale On Horseback" (1627) depicts the Genoese nobleman Anton Giulio Brignole-Sale astride a magnificent white horse, a symbol of his wealth and social standing. Van Dyck, renowned for his portraits of European royalty, skillfully captures the sitter's elegance and authority. The painting's composition, with the figure set against a dramatic backdrop, emphasizes Brignole-Sale's prominence. The inclusion of a dog and a red curtain further enhance the sense of aristocratic grandeur.
