Narvaez,1844. Creator: Unknown.

Narvaez, 1844. Portrait of Spanish general and statesman Ramón María Narváez y Campos, 1st Duke of Valencia: '...Minister at War and President of the Council in the present Ministry of Spain; he is, in fact, the Dictator of that country...He has been unscrupulous in the means he has employed to attain his position, and to keep it appears to be perfectly ruthless, shedding blood with a frightful indifference....On the 6th of November, 1843, he was fired at while proceeding in his carriage to the theatre; the assassins missed their aim, but the general was covered with the blood of his aide-de-camp, who was mortally wounded beside him. He has restored Queen Christina, subjugated her daughter, and is now abolishing the Constitution, thus re-establishing in Spain as perfect a despotism as ever existed there'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I.
