While appreciating the inherent problems in obtaining a contemporary C14th likeness, and aware this probably derives from the Spanish page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedro_Fern%C3%A1ndez_de_Castro) does the depiction of a generic figure in C17th armour really tell us anything, while perhaps being somewhat misleading historically? Apart from that, what function does it serve other than filling space with something colourful? Other pages of contemporary characters use coats of arms. Might I suggest that would be a more suitable choice. I don't have the editing skills. JF42 (talk) 15:44, 19 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
