Faithful copy of some notes taken for the portrait of the chief junchar by josé del pozo in puerto deseado, in 1789, during the malaspina expedition (1789-1794). The pencil notes mentioned above are preserved in the naval museum under the signature ms. 1725 (9). It represents the bust of a patagonian indian, from the front, with fur over the left shoulder, a ribbon in his hair, blonde, with a mustache and light eyes. It entered the museum in 1932, with funds from the hydrographic deposit. Date: 18th century.
