About this work

This painting shows a man on a white horse, wearing a fancy military uniform with a blue sash and a tall hat with a feather. He's riding in front of a group of soldiers in dark uniforms, who are standing at attention. The background is a pinkish sky with some clouds. The man on the horse seems to be in charge, and the soldiers are looking up at him. The painting is very detailed, with lots of texture and color. You can see the folds in the man's uniform and the shine on his horse's coat. This painting is a great example of the work of artist January Suchodolski.
