This woodcut, created by Cornelis Anthonisz in 1543, depicts Willem, Duke of Cleves, Guelders, and Berg, on horseback. Anthonisz, a well-known printmaker, is known for his portraiture and detailed depictions of armor, evident in the duke's armor and horse trappings. The work, now at the Rijksmuseum, is a striking example of 16th-century portraiture and its historical significance. The image, with its intricate detail and symbolic elements, provides insight into the life and power of a prominent figure of the time.
