About the piece
Painted by Antonio María Esquivel in 1841, this formal portrait depicts Baldomero Espartero in his full military splendor. The work showcases meticulous attention to detail, from the luminous gold of the epaulettes and medals to the soft texture of the white plumes in his hand, epitomizing the grandeur of 19th-century European portraiture.
