The Lady Riding and the Landsknecht

Albrecht Dürer

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of a woman riding a horse and a man walking beside her. The woman rides sidesaddle on a saddled and bridled horse with a bridle with a bit in its mouth. The woman wears a low-cut puffy-sleeved dress and a hat with a wide flat brim and a tall crown. The man walks on the left and slightly behind the horse. The man wears only a shirt and shoes. The man wears a cloth tied around his waist. The man holds a long pole with a triangular flag on top in his right hand and holds the reins in his left hand. The man and woman look at each other. A body of water with boats and a mountain range are in the background. A castle is on a hill on the right. The drawing is on textured paper and in a thin rectangular border. The drawing is signed with the initials "AD".
