Unfortunately, I can't remember who is pictured in this portrait. He is definitely a man of the sea, perhaps Chateaubriant or Duguay-Trouin. In any case, this man looks like he's got something on his mind. We can only guess at what his troubles might be. Photo taken in April 2003.
He could also be Vasco da Gama. :-)

ReplyDeleteHave a nice evening:)
I dunno. But I'll bet he's thinking, "Where the hell are we?"
ReplyDeleteGotta give those guys credit sailing the seas without only sextants and stuff like that!
Excellent portrait!
