As you can appreciate, it can be rather difficult to determine by facial features, which country a person hails from.. This is a painting in my collection. I believe the sitter could be a Hajduk . Not sure what country he is from. Any ideas? Here is a link to some photographs. Thank you for your thoughts. www.flickr.com/photos/fortner_fine_art/

I diagree that he looks like a native american. He has European features. This is what Native Americans look like: This is half Greek, 1/4 Native American, 1/4 Scottish: Back in the 60's and 70's, they used many Italians and Greeks in films as "native Americans' or "Indians" but that's not what they actually looked like. Native Americans do look like unmixxed Mexicans, height an all. They are very short, very dark with extremely straight black hair.

let him be a mestizo then...but in no way does he look Greek or even pure European.
