Ritratto equestre del Duca di Lerma — Storia e analisi

Un uomo riccamente vestito con un'armatura elaborata è seduto dritto su un cavallo bianco, tenendo un bastone mentre guarda direttamente verso lo spettatore, la sua figura incorniciata da un albero sferzato dal vento e un cielo drammatico. L'opera mostra Francisco Gómez de Sandoval, 1° Duca di Lerma, come figura equestre, con una scena di cavalleria distante che si svolge dietro di lui. Ritratto Equestre del Duca di Lerma è stato dipinto da Peter Paul Rubens nel 1603, raffigurando il Duca in una posa autoritaria.

Il dipinto appartiene al genere del ritratto equestre, un formato che Rubens utilizza qui per trasmettere potere e autorità.
