Lucas van Leyden

Cleveland Museum of Art

A black and white drawing of three men on horseback. The man on the left is playing a harp and has a ribbon above him that reads "DAVID ISRAHEL FILIUS IESE". The man in the middle is holding a scepter and has a long beard and a crown on his head. A ribbon above him reads "MAGNIFICE DOMINUS REX ISRAHEL SALOMON". The man on the right is wearing a hat and holding a spear, with a ribbon above him that reads "REHOBOAM REX IUDA". All three men are wearing old-fashioned clothing, and the horses are decorated with saddle blankets and harnesses. The background shows a desert landscape with rocks and dirt.
