This framed vintage commemorative print features a portrait of the Argentine general and South American liberator, José de San Martín, titled "Grandeza y Modestia" (Greatness and Modesty). Based on the renowned 1941 oil painting by Fidel Roig Matóns, the artwork depicts the military leader dressed in a traditional poncho, emphasizing his humility and deep connection to his troops before leading the historic Crossing of the Andes. The lower portion of the sheet features elegant typography detailing the historical context of his attire, while a printed facsimile signature and dedication appear on the lower left side of the composition. The piece is set within a gray mat board under glass, housed inside a classic gold-toned molded wooden frame.
