Ruiter te paard en man met hond 1811 - 1846

"Ruiter te paard en man met hond" (Rider on Horseback and Man with Dog), created between 1811 and 1846 by Antoine Jean Baptiste Coupé, depicts a scene of two figures, one on horseback and the other on foot. The rider is dressed in a top hat and coat, while the pedestrian carries a stick. This black and white lithograph, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures a moment of casual encounter, providing insight into the daily life of the 19th century. Coupé's attention to detail and skillful rendering make this artwork a valuable representation of the artistic style prevalent during the time period.
