The portrait exudes a sense of tradition and cultural heritage, showcasing the unique style and identity of Spanish sailors during this period. Through this artwork, we can appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship of Manuel de la Cruz (?) but also gain insight into the lives of seafarers in Spain centuries ago.
