Halt zweier Reiter is a 1642 oil by Philips Wouwerman, a Dutch Golden Age work, held at Kunsthaus Zürich.
This painting depicts a man on horseback, accompanied by another man and a dog. The scene is set outdoors, with trees and a landscape visible in the background. The man on horseback wears a hat and a blue jacket, while the other man is dressed in white and red. The painting features a mix of warm and cool colors, with the horse and the men's clothing standing out against the more subdued tones of the landscape.
