EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Juan Everardo Nithard, a prominent figure in the 17th century. A Jesuit and confessor of Queen Mariana of Austria, Nithard played a significant role in the Spanish court during this era. The artist, Santiago Ortega, skillfully captured his subject's essence through an oil painting that now adorns the Galería del Consejo de Estado. In this portrait, Nithard exudes wisdom and serenity as he gazes into the distance. The vibrant colors used by Ortega bring life to the image, emphasizing Nithard's importance within the Spanish community of Madrid. Standing tall in a vertical composition, he commands attention with his dignified presence. Nithard's connection to Queen Mariana adds another layer of intrigue to this piece. As her confessor, he held immense influence over matters both personal and political. This photograph print serves as a testament to their close relationship and highlights Nithard's pivotal role in shaping Spain's history. Though much is known about Nithard himself, little information exists about the origins of this particular artwork or its creator. Nevertheless, it remains an invaluable piece within Spain's cultural heritage.
