EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Jacob de Gheyn II, we are transported back to the intense world of warfare in 1599. The scene depicts a skilled horseman firing a shot with a harquebus, a light type rifle commonly used during that era. Clad in sturdy armor and mounted on his majestic steed, the armored man exudes an air of power and determination. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable, as every element of this cavalry skirmish comes to life before our eyes. The swirling dust kicked up by the galloping horses adds dynamism to the composition, while the billowing smoke from the harquebus creates an atmosphere charged with tension. This print serves as a testament to both military affairs and equestrian prowess during this period in history. It offers us a glimpse into the tactics employed by cavalrymen on horseback and highlights their reliance on firearms for strategic advantage. Quint Lox has masterfully captured not only the action but also the essence of this historical moment through his interpretation of de Gheyn's work. As we gaze upon this print from Liszt Collection, we cannot help but be drawn into its narrative - one filled with bravery, skillful marksmanship, and adrenaline-fueled battles fought on horseback.
