About the piece
This 1835 portrait captures Dom Pedro, Duke of Bragança, with a dignified presence. Adorned in a high-collared military uniform with intricate gold embroidery and heavy epaulettes, the sitter's figure is set against a moody, atmospheric blue backdrop that emphasizes the rich textures of the oil paint and the luminous rendering of the skin and medals.
