Ulan with girl, Military artwork in Poland.
Ulan with girl is a drawing depicting a mounted Polish cavalry soldier in winter alongside a female figure, illustrating where military and civilian life intersect. The work combines the portrayal of an armed rider with an everyday human encounter set in a snow-covered setting.
Created by Wojciech Kossak, the drawing showcases the Uhlan cavalry tradition that originated from Lithuanian light cavalry units during the 14th century. These mounted troops played a significant role in Polish military history across many centuries.
The artwork reflects Polish cavalry tradition through the detailed depiction of the Uhlan uniform, with its distinctive double-breasted jacket and square-topped cap. This clothing was typical of the country's light cavalry and continues to define how people remember Polish military heritage.
The artwork is available in various formats, including canvas prints, framed versions, and decorative items for home display. Visitors can purchase these reproductions and take them home for their own collections.
The winter landscape in the drawing creates a striking contrast between the rider's formal military attire and the natural snow-covered surroundings. This contrast gives the military subject an unexpected depth and human warmth.
