"Portrait of a Woman" is a painting attributed to the 15th century Italian Renaissance artist, Piero del Pollaiolo. Currently housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, the artwork has fascinated viewers and scholars alike with its rich details and the artist's understanding of human anatomy.

Executed around 1470, the portrait exemplifies the Florentine obsession with the minute details of individual features, including the gentle curling of the woman’s hair and the intricate patterning of her delicate veil. Composed in the convention of the traditional Florentine bust-length portrait, this particular piece deviates in presenting the model from a three-quarter viewpoint rather than a profile, allowing a comprehensive display of her features.

The woman in the portrait remains unidentified, sparking various hypotheses regarding her identity. Some speculate that she could be a member of the Medici family, who Pollaiuolo was closely associated with, while others suggest she might be a member of the Tornabuoni family due to the small coat of arms displayed in the upper-left corner of the painting.

The "Portrait of a Woman" is noted not just as an artistic achievement, but also as an illustration of the fashion choices of high-status women in 15th-century Florence. The style of her red velvet gown trimmed with fur, adorned with jewels and a transparent veil, provides valuable insights into the material culture of the period.

The portrait showcases Pollaiuolo’s meticulous attention to detail and his advanced understanding of the human form. This work contemporizes him with Leon Battista Alberti, who advocated for an accurate portrayal of human figures and facial features, promoting a more naturalistic approach to portraiture.

Finally worth noting is Pollaiuolo's exploration of light and shadow effects, an aspect that predates the chiaroscuro technique famously employed by artists such as Leonardo da Vinci. The subtle contrasts he achieves serve to lend the subject a three-dimensionality, making her appear lifelike and adding depth to her portrayal.
