Description   

Ferdinando III of Lorrain, Grand Duke of Tuscany, bought the picture in 1819 as a masterwork by Leonardo da Vinci, but the attribution has been soon after changed and it is still not certain: among the artists suggested there are Giuliano Bugiardini and Mariotto Albertinelli. To the convent of Sant'Jacopo a Ripoli, represented on the right in the landscape, is due the surname of Nun given to the woman in the last century. Under the left arch of the loggia it has been recognized the colonnade of the Ospedale di San Paolo, near the Santo Spirito's church, without the bell-tower not yet completed around 1510. The Cover for a Portrait at the Uffizi has been recently connected with this portrait.
