Diego de Guevara
Don Diego de Guevara ( 1450–1520) was a Spanish courtier and ambassador who served four, possibly five, successive Dukes of Burgundy, spanning the Valois and Habsburg dynasties, mostly in the Low Countries. He was also a significant art collector.〔Wolff, 232; the four "Dukes" include Mary as Duchess ''suo jure'', and Charles V; Philip the Good, died June 15, 1467, would make five.〕
==Career==
He was a younger son of Ladrón de Guevara, Lord of Escalante near Santander in northern Spain, and his date of birth is unknown, but may have been as early as "about 1450".〔Campbell, 192-193〕 After his death the Constable of Castile wrote to Charles V praising Guevara's more than forty years of service to the Dukes of Burgundy.〔Wolff, 232〕 He may have been at the Burgundian court as a page or valet de chambre from a relatively young age, and an early 16th-century source says he spent ''toute jeunesse'' ("all () youth") at the court.〔Campbell, 178 describes him as "brought up at the Burgundian court"; Notes 1 and 127 (quoted) on pages 204 and 207 give more details. See also the van der Weyden portrait mentioned below, which must have been painted by 1464 when the artist died.〕 His older brother, another Ladrón de Guevara, had been in the Burgundian court long before him, before 1461 according to a 16th-century history of the family. This also said that Diego was an esquire of the Valois Duke Charles the Bold at the disastrous Battle of Nancy in 1477, and threw himself over Charles' dead body to protect it.〔Campbell, 192-193 and notes 124-129 on page 207. If he did so, he apparently did not see the job through, as other accounts say that it was three days before Charles' body was found and identified.〕 He is recorded as an esquire of Charles's daughter and successor Mary of Burgundy at the time of her death in 1482, and continued in the service of her son Philip the Handsome, Duke of Burgundy.〔Campbell, 193〕
He rose through the ranks of the ducal household, becoming chamberlain by 1501. He was first ''maitre d'hotel'' to Philip's second wife, Queen Joanna of Castile (Joanna the Mad) when the couple travelled to Spain in 1506.〔 He was used as an ambassador, then usually an appointment for a relatively brief mission, to England and the court of Ferdinand II of Aragon. After Philip's death in 1506, Diego became councillor and chamberlain to Philip's son Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor.〔〔Hicks, ''Girl in a Green Gown'', p. 45.〕 Charles appointed him knight and warden (''clavaría'') of the Order of Calatrava in 1517,〔 and in 1518 Mayordomo mayor, an important role in charge of his personal apartments and arrangements.
Diego de Guevara died in Brussels in December 1520.〔Hicks, ''Girl in a Green Gown'', p. 48.〕 He was a cousin of Antonio de Guevara,〔 and had at least one child, his illegitimate son Felipe (see below).
