El caballero de la mano al pecho (1576-1578). Óleo sobre lienzo, 81 x 66 cm C. 809… Mucha literatura se ha hecho sobre este prodigioso retrato, no añadiremos más…. posiblemente de éste lo tomaría El Greco, ya que trabaja con él en Venecia. Ricardo Baroja y Willumsen, han creído, interpretando el gesto como afirmación del ego, que se trataría de un autorretrato."
