I think this is the portrait of Fernando Alvarez de Toledo Duke of Alva capitano general del Pays Bas (1507-1582) !!! Maybe i am wrong but compare the painting with this painting of : Unknown Profile

Since this image obviously comes from the Internet using Google image search is a good idea to see if other useages refer to the same person.

I dont know if this is of any use. I have an historic iconographic point of view. The profile is set on private, i cant delete the image. Dont they look the same?

None of the profiles you linked to are private, and if you use Google image search you find the same image used on:

I dont think you understand what i mean. I cannot change some items like profession or marriage of this profile http://www.geni.com/people/Garc%C3%ADa-Alvarez-de-Toledo-1er-Duque-... . So it is at least partly unchangeable for me an so i call this private. It is a mather of semantics. I can also not change the picture (the black and white one). I want to do this because it is not the person of this profile. The coloured picture is used for the right profile. I puted it there and copied it from wikipedia. I see your link tot the same wikipedia with also the black and white picture. Then i ask you. Do you think this picture is of two different persons or the same? I guess the person who put it on wikipedia is also wrong. Or not. I want to discuss if these pctures are different persons or not. I am familiar with the sources on the net.
