The painting meticulously depicts a scene within a riding school, where noblemen are engaged in training or showcasing their horses. The composition is carefully constructed to highlight the elegance and discipline of equestrian exercises, a popular pastime among the elite of the period. Heimbach's skill in rendering the textures of the horses' coats, the riders' attire, and the architectural details of the riding arena demonstrates his mastery over the medium and his attention to detail.
While the exact date of creation is uncertain, "The Riding School" is believed to have been painted during Heimbach's tenure as a court painter in Denmark or during his travels across Europe.
