Hungarian Cavalier is a 1637 ink by Stefano Della Bella, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching depicts a man riding a horse, dressed in a feathered hat and a long coat with a fur trim. He is surrounded by other people and horses in the background. The scene is set in a landscape with rolling hills and a cloudy sky. The man's attire and the horses suggest a sense of elegance and refinement. The etching technique used to create the image adds a level of detail and texture to the scene. This image is reminiscent of the work of artist Della Bella, Stefano.
