The painting The Battle of the Horsemen is an event that took place on February 5, 1600, and which, judging by the large number of replicas that were made according to it, was one of the decisive ones. The Dutch history of that time was rich in content for this topic since conflicts lasted for several decades during the civil war that took place in that area from 1581 to 1609. It is painted on copper sheet, which became a practice in the 16th century, which is why it is characterized by a characteristically shiny surface provided by a copper base.
