The image depicts a lancer mounted on his noble steed, adorned in an elaborate costume that exudes both humor and grandeur.

Dating back to approximately 1470-1519 AD. , this artwork represents Leonardo da Vinci's exceptional talent as both an artist and inventor.

Intriguingly captured in 2001 through photography by Alinari (not affiliated with any commercial use), this print allows us to appreciate the intricate details that might otherwise be missed when viewing it directly at the Royal Library. From the lance held firmly by our protagonist to their meticulously crafted armor and military attire - each element tells a story about armed forces during Europe's First and Second Millennium A. D. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece from Leonardo da Vinci's vast body of work, we are transported back in time to witness not only his artistic genius but also gain insights into fashion trends prevalent during the Renaissance period. The inclusion of hats or headdresses further accentuates how clothing choices played an essential role in defining social status during those times.
