This anonymous engraving, created between 1549 and 1575, is a portrait of Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba, known as "El Gran Capitán". The detail of the sitter's clothing and the ornamental frame surrounding the portrait are typical of Renaissance portraiture. This small but detailed engraving captures the distinguished appearance and presence of the great military leader. The inscription beneath the image, "Magnus Gonsalvus," further emphasizes the subject's status and importance.
