Portrait of a Woman (Sebastiano del Piombo)

Portrait of a Woman is a 1512 oil on panel painting by Sebastiano del Piombo, dated by the artist and now in the Uffizi in Florence. A 1589 inventory misattributed it to Raphael and another to Giorgione, with the latter misattribution lasting until 1784. The gallery's director Tommaso Puccini reverted to Raphael in 1793 and - exhibiting it in the Tribuna of the Uffizi - claimed it was Raphael's portrait of La Fornarina mentioned by Vasari.
