	Don Cristóbal Suárez de Ribera	1620	207 × 148	Museum of Fine Arts of Seville	Signed and dated in a fold of clothing difficult to read.[2] This would be a posthumous portrait, as the sitter died in 1618, although Mayer thought that monogram and date could be apocryphal.[3]	17/19

	Retrato de hombre	1623–1624	55.5 × 38	Museo del Prado, Madrid	Allende-Salazar (1925), Mayer (1936) and Camón Aznar estimate that this could be a self-portrait. López-Rey and Brown think that the subject could be the artist's brother Juan, also a painter.[6]	24/27

	Cabeza de venado	1626–1628	58 × 44.5	Museo del Prado, Madrid	Dating is controversial. Most critics suggest 1635.[10] López-Rey gives 1626, based on 1637 information from a picture of a deer antler painted by Velázquez bearing the inscription "Le mató el Rey nuestro Sr. Phe. quarto el year 1626".[11] A technical study by Carmen Garrido placed the date between 1626 and 1628.[12]	31/33

	Demócrito/El geógrafo	1628–1629	101 × 81	Musée des Beaux-Arts de Rouen	Head and hand repainted around 1640. Radiography shows the left hand formerly contained a drink, as it appears in two copies preserved.[14]	37/40

	María Teresa, infanta de España	1651–1652	34.3 × 40	Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City	The work has been cut.[27] Critics have unanimously considered it by Velázquez. Brown (1986) believes that it could be a study used as a model for later portraits.[28]	110/118
