The exact subject of the painting has long been unclear. Suggestions include that the subject is Christophle le More (Christopher the Moor), a black archer at the court of Emperor <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_V,_Holy_Roman_Emperor" title="Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor">Charles V</a>, or <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Maurice" title="Saint Maurice">Saint Maurice</a>, who was typically portrayed as black. If it is a portrait of a specific real individual, it appears to be the earliest known portrait of a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_people" title="Black people">black</a> man in European painting.</p>
