Dating back to the 15th century, this architectural masterpiece showcases a harmonious blend of Gothic and Manueline styles, unique to Portugal's Estremadura region. The vibrant colors showcased in this image bring life to every detail carved into the sculpture. The unknown artist skillfully crafted each delicate feature, capturing an expression of devotion and serenity on Don Manuel's face as he engages in prayer. Standing tall and vertical against the monastery's facade, this statue serves as a testament to both religious faith and artistic excellence. As one gazes upon this photograph, they are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen within history.

Photographer Santiago Ortega has masterfully captured not only the physical presence but also the spiritual essence emanating from this remarkable piece of art. This print allows viewers to appreciate not only its aesthetic qualities but also its profound connection with Portuguese heritage. Whether you are an admirer of architecture or simply captivated by Portugal's rich history, this print serves as a visual reminder that art can transcend time and transport us into different eras where we can marvel at human creativity and devotion.
