Cristóbal Martín de Herrera, Minister of Development

Ca. 1877. Oil on canvas.
On display elsewhere

Cristóbal Martín de Herrera (Aldeanueva de la Riviera, Salamanca, 1831–Madrid, 1878) was a lawyer and a politician. He held many charges in the Government, as Minister of Grace and Justice (1868 and 1875–7), Minister of Overseas Affairs (1872, 1877–8), and Minister of Development (1875–8). He bears the grand crosses and sashes of the orders of Charles III, Saints Maurice and Lazarus of Sardinia over his minister’s uniform.

This work was probably copied by Francisco Maura (P05926).
