Splendid horses and aristocratic riders by Anselm van Hulle et al

 Salvete Omnes,

a nice May day -just  started listening to a new novel by C.J. Box - Storm Watch. 

Frederic Henry, prince of Orange

 

so on this nice May day let us enjoy some equestrian portraits showing members of the princes of Orange clan, attributed to Anselm van Hulle.

Amazing bays, one black and a paint horse.

Maurice of Nassau

Philip William , prince of Orange


Frederic Henry, prince of Orange

William II, prince of Orange


William the Silent

in the wiki commons gallery of this painter there are interesting portraits of the important men(and one woman) of this period

Among them two Polish or Hungarian looking costumed gentlemen
