This small engraving shows a noblewoman riding a horse. A young soldier in fancy armor stands beside her. He holds his hat in his hand, looking up at her. The woman sits tall on the horse. Her clothes look expensive. The hat he holds is his, not hers—a quiet clue about who’s really in charge here. It plays with old ideas of who has power. Look up Albrecht Dürer’s other prints to see more sharp, smart engravings.
