Portrait of a young woman

Giulio Romano
1520. Oil on canvas. 44 x 60 cm. Musée des Beaux-Arts, Strasbourg, France.

A portrait by Italian High Renaissance and Mannerist artist Giulio Romano, the chief pupil and assistant of Raphael. The painting depicts an elegant young woman wearing a gold satin dress and a decorated headdress, with her right hand resting softly against her chest. The work strongly reflects the influence of Raphael's late female portraits (such as La Fornarina) while demonstrating the stylistic transition toward Mannerist elegance and subtle lighting.
