Description from the seller
Horseman Silver Miniature – Rider saluting on horse – Netherlands, c. 1940–1950
Elegant silver miniature depicting a rider mounted on a horse, saluting with his hat raised in a traditional gesture of courtesy. The scene conveys dynamism and character, with the horse shown in motion and a highly expressive composition that reflects the taste for European figurative miniatures from the mid-20th century.
The piece features detailed sculptural work: the features of the rider, the tack, the reins and the horse’s elements are rendered with craftmanship typical of Dutch production of the period. This type of decorative miniature was appreciated both by silver collectors and by lovers of equestrian scenes and traditional figures.
