This equestrian double portrait, painted around 1652–53 by Aelbert Cuyp (1620–1691), shows the young brothers Cornelis and Michiel Pompe van Meerdervoort astride their horses with their tutor and coachman, dressed as huntsmen before a ruined castle. Cuyp, the leading landscape and portrait painter of the Dutch Golden Age, was among the first to bring this grand equestrian format — once reserved for royalty — to the sons of a prosperous Dutch family. The painting now hangs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
Jacquard-woven in soft, durable cotton — a warm, fully reversible throw for the sofa, bed or reading chair.

This has gotten more compliments than anything else we own. It brought Equestrian Portrait of the Pompe into the house at a price I could actually justify. Shipping took four days from order to doorstep. I will be back for another one.
I bought this to fill an awkward corner and it did much more than that. Every line in Equestrian Portrait of the Pompe is crisp, even in the busiest areas. 🙂
This is the best thing I have bought for the house all year. The shading in Equestrian Portrait of the Pompe has a depth I never noticed in books…
It looks like something out of a museum shop, in the best possible way. The scale works perfectly for Equestrian Portrait of the Pompe and nothing feels cramped. Don’t think twice, just order it.
This went well past what I expected. The finish is even and flawless right to the edges. An easy five stars from me.
