Don Juan of Austria

Robert Nanteuil

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a person within an oval frame. The person has long, curly hair, a mustache, deep-set eyes, and is wearing an intricately designed high-collared garment with a cross-shaped medal around their neck. They are dressed in armor with visible parts of a breastplate and arm braces. Surrounding the frame are armor and weaponry elements, and the background shows decorative banners and laurel leaves. The name "Don Juan de Austria" is inscribed at the bottom of the frame.
