EDITORS COMMENTS

The subject of this striking print is Francisco Gomez de Sandoval, the 1st Duke of Lerma, a prominent Spanish statesman in the early 17th century. In this exquisite drawing displayed at the Louvre Museum in Paris, Rubens skillfully portrays the duke with great attention to detail. Dressed in magnificent armor and mounted on a majestic horse, he exudes power and authority. The intricate lines drawn with chalk and ink bring out every nuance of his facial features, capturing both his strength and wisdom. As one gazes upon this artwork, it transports us back to an era when politics and religion were deeply intertwined. The duke's position as a cardinal reflects his influence within Catholicism during that time. His expression conveys a sense of determination mixed with introspection, hinting at the complexities inherent in political power. Rubens' masterful technique brings life to this historical figure who played a significant role in shaping Spain's destiny.
