Tossup
A holder of this title grasps a letter with the artist’s signature and wears a chivalric badge in a portrait named for his outfit’s brown and silver color. Tiepolo painted this title personified sitting among the continents and the pillars of Hercules in a ceiling fresco on this title’s “apotheosis.” Théophile Gautier wrote that a holder of this title looked like a “corner grocer who has just won the lottery” in an awkward group portrait of him and his family. A holder of this title commissioned both 1628’s The Triumph of Bacchus and a painting that shows his victorious army receiving a key in front of a row of vertical lances, titled The Surrender of Breda. For 10 points, name this royal title of a patron whose daughter, the Infanta Margarita, is depicted in Las Meninas by his court painter Diego Velázquez. ■END■
