There has been a confusion with this file I must clarify. I have seen the portrait some years ago at the "Museo histórico nacional", and wrote the things wrong. To the left, there was the portrait of Rafael Domingo del Villar, without date (it says so, without date). To the right, a much smaller thing with the same image, also called portrait of Pueyrredón and dated 1823. By mistake, I took notes "Rafael Domingo del Villar, 1823". I found later a better image in the internet of the portrait than my phto of it, and here it is. But it was a mistake: Rafael del Villar has lived from 1873 to 1952. Clearly, he made a portrait using this miniature portrait as model. It was not, as I thought by then, the same portrait. I apologize for the mistake. Fortunately, the small portrait, even if of less quality, is indeed in public domain (it was made in 1823), so it's not needed to leave all those articles about Pueyrredon without an image.
