Entry of Marie de Medici into Amsterdam [plate 5 of 6]

Pieter Nolpe after Jan Martsen

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a group of horses standing together. The horses are detailed with elaborate saddles and bridles, and the backdrop is a sky defined by delicate lines and minimalistic clouds. The detailed line work emphasizes texture and form, particularly in depicting the manes of the horses and the fabric of the clothing.
