The Triumphal Chariot of Maximilian I (The Great Triumphal Car) [plate 5 of 8]

Albrecht Dürer

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a chariot being pulled by two horses. The linework depicts a scene with classical motifs. Two horses are in motion, adorned with ornate harnesses. The horses are pulling a chariot, not fully visible. Above the horses are decorative curls and Latin texts labeling different aspects, such as "Fortitudo" (Strength) and "Velocitas" (Swiftness). The art style is reminiscent of Albrecht Dürer's woodcuts and engravings, emphasizing fine linework and classical allegories.
