IOANNES QVARTVS PORTVGALIAE REX (Kunsthistorisches Museum)
Summary
Supposed portrait of King John II of Portugal (identified in inscription as "Ioannes Quartus", as he was the fourth king of the Aviz Dynasty) [source says John I, but is incorrect], as first identified by Pedro Batalha Reis (Um Retrato d'El-Rei Dom João II, Lisbon, 1946). Some historians (such as A. H. de Oliveira Marques and Maria Fernanda Gomes da Silva) disagree with this identification.
