"La Fornarina" is a notable Renaissance portrait painting that has been traditionally attributed to the Italian artist Sebastiano del Piombo, whose full name was Sebastiano Luciani (c. 1485 – 1547). The work is believed to have been created in the early 16th century, during a period when Sebastiano was influenced by the central Italian painting style, particularly by the works of Raphael and Michelangelo, with whom he had close associations. The title "La Fornarina" translates to "The Baker's Daughter," which suggests that the subject of the painting may have been the daughter of a baker, a common interpretation for the identity of the sitter in Raphael's similarly titled work.

Sebastiano del Piombo, who was originally from Venice, moved to Rome in 1511 where he fused the rich color palette characteristic of the Venetian school with the monumental forms of the Roman artistic tradition. "La Fornarina" is an example of this stylistic synthesis, showcasing Sebastiano's skill in rendering the human figure with a palpable sense of presence and his adept use of color to enhance the psychological depth of the portrait.

The painting depicts a young woman adorned with jewelry and fine clothing, indicating her status and wealth. Her direct gaze and the intimate portrayal suggest a personal connection between the artist and the subject, which was a common theme in Renaissance portraiture. The work is executed in oil on canvas, a medium that was becoming increasingly popular at the time due to its versatility and durability compared to the traditional fresco technique.

While the attribution of "La Fornarina" to Sebastiano del Piombo has been a subject of scholarly debate, the painting is recognized for its artistic significance and contribution to the understanding of portraiture during the High Renaissance. The exact location and ownership of the painting have varied over time, and its provenance contributes to the rich history surrounding the work.

"La Fornarina" by Sebastiano del Piombo remains an important piece in the study of Renaissance art, reflecting the cultural and artistic exchanges between Venice and Rome during a pivotal moment in the history of Italian painting. Its attribution to Sebastiano, while not without contention, places the work within the oeuvre of an artist who played a significant role in the development of 16th-century Italian art.
