caption_attribution_description: Español: Supuesto retrato del insigne escritor español Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (1547-1615), autor de la obra Don Quijote de la Mancha, attibuido a Juan de Jáuregui. Aunque Cervantes escribió, en el Prólogo a las Novelas ejemplares, que Juan de Jáuregui le había retratado, no hay ninguna documentación que asegure que éste sea de Jáuregui, y menos que represente a Cervantes. No existe ningún retrato auténtico de Cervantes.English: Portrait of Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra commonly said to be that which, according to the prologue to Cervantes' "Exemplary Novels", was painted by Juan de Jáuregui. Modern scholarship does not accept this, or any other graphic representation of Cervantes, to be authentic, nor is there any documentation for Jáuregui having painted this portrait.
