Portrait of the Duque de Agrada c. 1805

This oil on canvas painting is a portrait of the Duque de Agrada, likely a Spanish nobleman. The portrait was created in 1805 by an unknown artist and depicts the Duque standing in a formal pose, wearing an elaborate dark blue coat adorned with gold embroidery. The portrait is an example of Spanish portraiture from the late 18th and early 19th centuries, which often emphasized the sitter's social status and wealth through detailed depictions of clothing and accessories. The presence of the coat of arms and the ornate table suggests a man of importance and wealth, perhaps a high-ranking official or member of the Spanish aristocracy.
