EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts Alvaro de Luna y Tovar (1390-1453), a prominent Spanish politician and military leader of the late Middle Ages. Born in the Kingdom of Castile, Luna rose to prominence under King Juan II of Castile, serving as his trusted advisor and eventually becoming the Constable of Castile in 1430. Luna's image is captured in this vertical, upright print, which showcases his regal bearing and imposing presence. He is depicted wearing full armor, a symbol of his military prowess and status as a knight. The intricate details of the armor, from the embossed patterns to the meticulously rendered rivets, highlight the artistry of the engraving. The basin-shaped background, or breadplate, adds a chivalric touch to the portrait, evoking the knightly orders of the time, such as the Order of Santiago. The sociedades politicas, or political institutions, of the period placed great importance on the image of the knightly gentleman, and Luna's portrait embodies this ideal. Despite his military and political successes, Luna's tenure as Constable was marked by controversy and intrigue. He was accused of treason and was eventually executed in 1453. Nevertheless, his legacy as a powerful and influential figure in the history of Spain endures, and this engraving serves as a testament to his enduring impact.
