"Philip III on Horseback" (1634-35) is an equestrian portrait painted by the Spanish artist Diego Rodríguez de Silva y Velázquez, one of the most prominent painters of the Spanish Golden Age. This painting is part of a series of equestrian portraits that were commissioned by Philip IV to decorate the Hall of Realms in the Buen Retiro Palace in Madrid. The series was intended to glorify the Spanish monarchy and included portraits of Philip III, Philip IV, and Queen Isabel of Bourbon, among others.

The portrait of Philip III depicts the king as a commanding figure, mounted on a horse and clad in armor, symbolizing his leadership and military prowess. Velázquez's mastery in rendering the textures of metal, fabric, and flesh is evident in this work, as is his skillful use of color and light to convey the majesty and dignity of the king. The composition is dynamic, with the horse captured in a spirited pose, which adds to the overall sense of movement and power.

Velázquez's equestrian portraits are celebrated for their innovative approach to the genre, as he moved away from the rigid formality of traditional royal portraiture to create more naturalistic and psychologically penetrating representations of his subjects. "Philip III on Horseback" is no exception, showcasing the artist's ability to combine the grandeur of courtly representation with a lifelike presence.

The painting is currently held in the collection of the Museo del Prado in Madrid, where it remains an important example of Velázquez's portraiture and a testament to the artist's influence on the development of Western art. The work has been extensively studied for its artistic and historical significance, contributing to the understanding of the political and cultural context of 17th-century Spain.
