Note: The drawing depicts an equestrian figure before a landscape with a city view in the distance. The rider bears a close resemblance to Francesco Gonzaga, 4th marquis of Mantua and husband of Isabella d'Este. His quite distinctive facial type in this drawing can be compared with his portrait in Mantegna's "Madonna della Vittoria", Louvre, and with a portrait drawing of him by a North Italian artist in the National Gallery, Dublin. The fleur-de-lis on the breast plate appears on the Gonzaga arms.
