拍品專文

Formerly misattributed to both Agnolo Bronzino and Jacopo da Pontormo, this enigmatic painting of a young girl recalls the portraiture of both Maso da San Friano and Santi di Tito (see for example, Santi di Tito's Portrait of Lucrezia, daughter of Niccolò di Sinibaldo Gaddi, standing full-length in the garden of the Palazzo Gaddi, with a macaw and a jerboa, formerly in the collection of Saam and Lily Nijstad, The Hague; E. Barletti and A. Morrogh, 'La 'casa dell'orto' di Niccolò Gaddi', in Giovanni Antonio Dosio da San Gimignano architetto e scultor fiorentino tra Roma, Firenze e Napoli, Florence, 2011, pp. 471, 486–88, illustrated). The present sitter was at one time believed to be Maria de' Medici (1540–1557), the eldest daughter of Cosimo I de' Medici (1519-1574) and Eleonora of Toledo (1522-1562), Grand Duke and Duchess of Tuscany.
