The oil on canvas masterpiece measures 126x102 cm and is housed in the prestigious Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando in Madrid, Spain. The portrait immortalizes a significant moment between Don Jose de Carvajal y Lancaster, a Spanish diplomat and founder of the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando, and his young pupil Mariano Sanchez.
