Am I understanding it correctly when I assume he's returning the collar of the order granted to his father?

Is this normal procedure in Spain?
 
The Order of the Golden Fleece, is a special order and very exclusive. King Juan Carlos delivered only 23, most to monarchs.

It must be returned to the king when the person to whom the king gave it dies, it is not hereditary nor transmissible, and each piece is numbered because they are limited in number.

who knows what they might have thought of their relationship 20 years ago after having seen that portrait!
 
Las Meninas it ain't..

A duller composition would be hard to achieve..
 
The portrait per se is all right.

NOT in my opinion... they might just have well have commissioned a vast photograph, there is nothing 'painterly' or visually arresting about it, whatsoever !
 
Well, Antonio López's style is hyperrealism.

I love his panoramic views of Madrid.
