With Lucas Vorsterman's 1628 original as his inspiration, Lox skillfully brings forth Contareno's dignified presence and intellectual depth. Contareno, at the age of 31 when this portrait was created, exudes a sense of wisdom beyond his years. His piercing gaze draws us in, revealing a man who has witnessed the intricacies of diplomacy and politics. The lines etched on his face hint at the weighty responsibilities he carries on his shoulders. Lox's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke.
