1. Title: "Payo Gomez Charino (ca. 1225-1295): Galician Poet and Nobleman, Major Governor (Adelantado Mayor) of the Kingdom of Galicia and Troubadour in the Galician Language" This portrait illustration depicts Payo Gomez Charino, a significant figure from the 13th century in European history. Born around 1225, Charino was a Galician poet, nobleman, and the Major Governor (Adelantado Mayor) of the Kingdom of Galicia. He is also recognized as a troubadour, composing poetry in the Galician language. The intricately detailed engraving, created by Llanta in 1866 for the "Cronica General de Espana," showcases Charino's regal attire and noble demeanor. He is depicted wearing a grand headdress adorned with feathers and a helmet, symbolizing his military and administrative roles. A luxurious fur mantle draped over his shoulders adds to his aristocratic appearance. Charino's moustache and mustache are neatly groomed, giving him a distinguished look. With a serious expression, he gazes directly at the viewer, exuding an air of authority and wisdom. During the Middle Ages, Charino played a crucial role in the Kingdom of Galicia, a region in northwestern Spain. He served under King Alfonso X of Castile and León, contributing to the administration and navigation of the kingdom. Charino's poetry, reflecting the Galician language and culture, adds to his enduring legacy in European literature. This portrait, produced through lithography, offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable figure from the Middle Ages, showcasing the rich history and diverse culture of Europe during this period.
