A framed historical document display is affixed to a white, textured wall, likely within a military institution, museum, or historical building in Vila Real, Portugal, given its content referencing Infantry Regiment 13 (RI13), historically based in Vila Real. The display consists of a dark brown wooden frame with decorative gold-colored metal corner embellishments, housing two vertically oriented documents and a central horizontal plaque, all protected by glass. The left document, predominantly grayscale, features an ornate border with a circular central vignette depicting two historical figures in military attire, one saluting, with a small cannon between them. Below this vignette, text reads "La Lys" and "1918". Further below, a detailed battle scene is depicted, with additional text "La Lys - Les Loups - 9-11 Abril". The entire document is outlined with a gold bead-like border. The right document, also grayscale, presents extensive Portuguese text. The top section displays a Portuguese national coat of arms flanked by a lion and another mythical creature, surmounted by a crown. Signatures "Arthur Moreira da Fonseca" and "Heitor Martins" are visible at the bottom of the text. This document is also outlined with a gold bead-like border. Reflections on the glass obscure some of the text. Centered below the two documents is a rectangular silver-colored plaque with black text that reads: "HOMENAGEM DA CÂMARA MUNICIPAL DA NOVA LISBOA AOS SOLDADOS EXPEDICIONÁRIOS DO RI13 - 14-5-1946." This translates to "TRIBUTE FROM THE MUNICIPAL COUNCIL OF NOVA LISBOA TO THE EXPEDITIONARY SOLDIERS OF RI13 - 14-5-1946."
