"Madame de Valentinois" is a portrait painting attributed to a follower of François Clouet, a renowned French Renaissance painter. François Clouet (c. 1510 – 1572) was the court painter to King Henry II of France and is best known for his detailed and realistic portraits of the French nobility. While the exact identity of the follower who painted "Madame de Valentinois" is unknown, the work is stylistically consistent with the school of Clouet, suggesting it was created by an artist within his circle or influenced by his technique.

The painting depicts Diane de Poitiers, the Duchess of Valentinois, who was a prominent figure at the French court and the famous mistress of King Henry II. Diane de Poitiers was celebrated for her beauty, intelligence, and influence over the king, and she became a frequent subject of portraiture during the 16th century. In the portrait, she is typically shown with an elegant demeanor, adorned in the fashion of the French nobility of the time, with intricate clothing and jewelry that reflect her status and the tastes of the era.

The artwork captures the essence of Renaissance portraiture, characterized by a focus on the sitter's appearance and status, as well as an interest in naturalism and the accurate depiction of details. "Madame de Valentinois" is significant not only as a representation of Diane de Poitiers but also as an example of the cultural and artistic milieu of the French court during the mid-16th century.

As a painting by a follower of François Clouet, "Madame de Valentinois" contributes to the understanding of the master's influence on his contemporaries and the dissemination of his portrait style. The painting is an important piece for art historians and enthusiasts interested in the development of portraiture during the French Renaissance and the broader European context of the period.
