Execution is a 1709 oil by Georg Philipp Rugendas the Elder, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a group of people gathered around a man on a white horse. The man is wearing a hat and holding a sword. There are other people in the background, some of whom are also on horses. The sky is cloudy and gray. The scene appears to be a dramatic moment, possibly a battle or a confrontation. The man on the white horse seems to be the central figure, and the others are gathered around him.
