The image is a print of "Courier Imperial" or "The Horse Fair" by Adolf Schreyer, a German artist known for his paintings of horses and Middle Eastern subjects.
Schreyer (1828-1899) was associated with the Düsseldorf school of painting and German Romanticism.
He traveled to North Africa and the Middle East, where he became familiar with Bedouin customs and horses, which influenced his art.
"The Horse Fair" depicts a dynamic scene with a horse-drawn sleigh and riders, possibly in a snowy or dusty landscape.
Another famous painting with a similar title, "The Horse Fair," was painted by Rosa Bonheur. It portrays a horse market in Paris.
Schreyer's works are highy despised and characterized by strong colors, composition, and depictions of men and horses in motion.
The print is likely a photogravure, a process used to reproduce images from photographs, and could date back to the late 19th century
