"Próba konia" (English: "The Horse Trial") is a notable painting by Josef von Brandt, a Polish painter renowned for his depictions of horse-riding and scenes from the lives of the Polish gentry. The work is a prime example of Brandt's fascination with the military and equestrian culture of Poland and Ukraine during the 17th century, a period rich with historical significance due to the conflicts and social structures of the time.

The painting captures a dynamic scene in which a group of riders is testing the mettle of a horse, a common practice among the Polish szlachta (nobility) and military to assess the animal's suitability for use in battle or as a reliable mount. Brandt's mastery in illustrating horses is evident in the detailed rendering of the animals' musculature and movement, as well as the riders' interactions with the horse and each other.

"Próba konia" is characterized by its vivid portrayal of the subjects, the artist's use of color, and his ability to convey the drama of the moment. The composition is carefully constructed to lead the viewer's eye across the canvas, capturing the intensity and action of the trial. Brandt's work not only reflects his technical skill but also serves as a historical document, providing insight into the customs and daily life of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

As a significant work in Josef von Brandt's oeuvre, "Próba konia" is often cited in discussions of 19th-century Polish art and is considered an important contribution to the genre of historical painting. The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a cultural artifact, offering a window into the past and preserving the legacy of Polish equestrian traditions.
