About this work

The painting shows a man dressed in formal attire, standing in front of a red curtain. He wears a blue coat with red trim, a white shirt, and white pants. His right hand rests on a shield with writing on it. The man's outfit is detailed, with gold buttons and a red sash. He holds a sword at his side and wears a hat with a red feather. The background is a plain wall, with the red curtain draped behind him. This portrait is a great example of the work of artist Mariano Guerrero.
