This a portrait that was painted in 1644 by the famous artist Velázquez. He was well-known for his court paintings of King Phillip IV. The man he painted in this portrait is Sebastián de Morra.
Sebastián de Morra was the king’s royal dward and jester. Unfortunately, dwarfs were mocked and employed as performers for kings and nobles throughout that period. However, Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage thinks this one looks a lot like him. At the very least, the entertainment business is a lot better now than it was then!
