A magnificent portrait of a young woman, painted by Botticelli between 1480 and 1485, sometimes also attributed to Jacopo del Sellaio.
It is currently held at the Städelsches Kunstinstitut in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The figure is shown in profile, following a type inspired by ancient medals, which gives the image a composed, timeless elegance. The face, with its delicate, idealised features, expresses a pure, abstract beauty, more symbolic than individual. Great attention is paid to the elaborate hairstyle, the jewellery and the clothes, elements alluding to the social status and refined taste of the age.
