17th Century engraving
El Retrato:
Ernesto aparece de medio busto, girado tres cuartos a la derecha, enmarcado en una orla ovalada sobre un fondo rectilíneo tramado. Viste una armadura de placas decorada y una lechuguilla (ruff) de encaje alrededor del cuello, moda característica del primer tercio del siglo XVII en el ámbito germánico e hispano-flamenco. Porta una banda militar cruzada sobre el pecho y sostiene con su mano derecha el bastón de mando o de general.
The Portrait:
Ernest appears in a half-bust portrait, turned three-quarters to the right, framed by an oval border against a patterned, rectilinear background. He wears decorated plate armor and a lace ruff around his neck, a fashion characteristic of the first third of the 17th century in the Germanic and Hispano-Flemish worlds. He wears a military sash across his chest and holds a baton or general's staff in his right hand.
