This engraving depicts the esteemed Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg, also known as George Scanderbeg, who reigned as the King of Albania from 1405 to 1468. The portrait is a print from the renowned work "History of the Popes (. . . ) Crimes of the Queen King and Emperors through the centuries" by Maurice Lachatre in 1863. The artist, Stefano Bianchetti, skillfully captures Skanderbeg's regal presence and commanding gaze. His noble features are etched with precision, showcasing his strength and determination. As one gazes upon this artwork, it transports us back to a time when kings ruled with authority during the Middle Ages.
