"Five Lansquenets and an Oriental on Horseback" is a woodcut print by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created in the early 16th century. This work is part of Dürer's extensive body of graphic art, which includes woodcuts, engravings, and etchings. The print depicts a group of five lansquenets, German mercenary foot soldiers recognizable by their distinctive, flamboyant clothing and weaponry, alongside an individual presumed to be an Oriental figure mounted on horseback. The term "Oriental" reflects the historical context of the period, when European artists often depicted figures from the East in an exoticized manner.

Dürer's portrayal of the lansquenets is notable for its detailed representation of their attire, which was characterized by slashed sleeves, puffed fabrics, and elaborate hats. These soldiers were known for their bold fashion, which was both a display of their status and a practical adaptation for ease of movement in battle. The presence of the Oriental figure on horseback adds an element of curiosity and reflects the fascination with foreign cultures that was prevalent during the Renaissance, a time when trade routes were expanding and cultural exchanges were increasing.

The woodcut is an example of Dürer's skill in conveying texture, pattern, and form through the medium of woodcut printing, a technique that involves carving an image into a wooden block, inking the surface, and then pressing it onto paper. Dürer was a master of this technique, and his prints were widely circulated, contributing to his reputation as one of the foremost artists of his time.

"Five Lansquenets and an Oriental on Horseback" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical value, offering insight into the cultural and social dynamics of the Renaissance period. The print is held in various collections and continues to be studied for its intricate design and the light it sheds on the period's military and cultural attire.
