Painted by the Portuguese School during the 16th century, this gouache on paper artwork captures the essence of this influential naval general and explorer. Afonso de Albuquerque is depicted as a distinguished man with a commanding presence. His strong features are highlighted by his well-groomed beard, adding to his air of authority. This Renaissance-era portrait truly reflects the grandeur and power associated with this great historical figure. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, bringing out the depth and character in Afonso de Albuquerque's face. The use of gouache on paper adds richness and texture to the painting, enhancing its overall allure. Housed at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this masterpiece is an invaluable piece of art that has stood the test of time.
