"Seated Woman Painting a Portrait of a Man, Possibly the Artist" is a fresco by the Italian Renaissance artist Giorgio Vasari, painted in 1542 as part of the decorative scheme for the Camera della Fama e delle Arti (Hall of Fame and of the Arts) in the Palazzo Vecchio, Florence. This work is significant as it reflects the Renaissance interest in the role of the artist and the intellectual status of painting as an art form. The fresco depicts a woman, an unusual subject as a painter during the Renaissance, engaged in the act of painting a portrait of a man who may be a self-representation of Vasari himself. This inclusion could be interpreted as a commentary on the nature of artistic creation and the relationship between the artist and the subject.

The fresco is part of a larger series of works that adorn the walls of the Camera della Fama e delle Arti, a room dedicated to celebrating the achievements of famous men and the arts. Vasari, who is also known for his biographical collection "Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and Architects," was a pivotal figure in documenting and promoting the idea of the artist as a creative genius. His work in the Palazzo Vecchio is a testament to his skill as a painter and his intellectual engagement with the theories of art that were current during his time.

The "Seated Woman Painting a Portrait of a Man, Possibly the Artist" stands out for its portrayal of a female artist, a subject that challenges the traditional gender roles of the period and anticipates later discussions on the place of women in the arts. The fresco's condition, historical context, and artistic significance make it an important piece for understanding the evolution of Renaissance art and the role of gender within it.
