This woodcut, titled "Portret van Emanuel Philibert van Savoye te paard" by Cornelis Anthonisz (1499-1553), depicts Emanuel Philibert, Duke of Savoy, riding a white horse. Created between 1546 and 1550, the artwork displays a detailed portrait of the Duke in full regalia, with his coat of arms prominently displayed at the top. This piece, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the style of portraiture prevalent in 16th-century Northern Europe, showcasing the fine detail and craftsmanship of woodcuts during the Renaissance.
