Ottoman Sipahi Horseman 1495

Generated from: Osprey Men-at-Arms military history plate illustration, semi-realistic historical gouache artwork, muted restrained 15th century palette, accurate period armour, strong readable silhouette. A SINGLE mounted figure: one Ottoman Sipahi heavy horseman of the late 15th century, full body of horse and rider, three-quarter top-down view facing right, on a plain flat light grey background with a soft dark ground shadow. The rider wears mail and plate krug armour over a richly coloured kaftan, a conical steel helmet with a neck guard and a sliding nasal, and carries a round shield, a long lance (mizrak) upright, a recurve bow in a bow case at his side and a curved kilij sabre at his hip. His horse wears a rich decorated saddlecloth with Ottoman geometric patterns. Ottoman saddlery and the conical helmet are the giveaway features. Entire horse and rider in frame, no cropping, no text, no border, no frame, no other figures.
