Polish Hussar is a 1637 ink by Stefano Della Bella, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The image depicts a man riding a horse, dressed in a long coat and a hat with a feather. He is holding a long object, possibly a lance or a sword, and is surrounded by other people and horses in the background. The scene appears to be set in a rural or open area, with a few buildings visible in the distance. The man's clothing and the style of the horse suggest a sense of elegance and refinement, while the presence of other people and horses in the background adds a sense of activity and movement to the scene. The overall atmosphere of the image is one of energy and dynamism. The Polish Hussar is a work by Stefano Della Bella, an artist known for his etchings and engravings.
