Portrait of an unknown knight of the order of santiago. It should be noted that, although the attribution of this painting to juan carreño de miranda is not supported by any evidence or testimony and has on occasion been questioned, it can be accepted without reservations according to some experts, due to the technique and character used in the canvas. The execution of the face and hair, and the casual way of representing the objects that appear, are typical of carreño de miranda, and can be grouped with those of other confident and totally unquestionable portraits of his. Object Type: painting. Date: circa 1666. Dimensions: height: 210 cm (82.6 in); width: 109 cm (42.9 in). Medium: oil on canvas. Collection: Lázaro Galdiano Museum.
