MIGUEL DE ESPINOZA We all know what Baruch de Spinoza looked like. Or we think we know because there is still no agreement that all the portraits that purport to show him, really are Spinoza. But what did his father look like? Thanks to a declaration by Joao de Aguila, processed by the Inquisition in 1650, we know, partially.Miguel Espinosa christão-novo mercador natural desta cidade [Lisboa] o qual não sabe o nome de judeo cazado com huma judia portugueza nacida em Londres aonde foi bautizada a que não sabe o nome, he baixo do corpo, gordo, branco do rosto, e tera quarenta e cinco annos de idade.Translation (thank you Florbela)Miguel Espinosa New-Christian, merchant, native of this city, (Joao de Aguilar) does not know his jewish name, married to a Portuguese jewish woman, born in London, where she was baptized, (Joao de Aguilar) does not know her name, He (Miguel) is short of stature, fat, white face, and he is forty-five years of age.What we also learn here, is that Miguel de Espinoza's third wife, Spinoza's stepmother came from London.
