As I watched with fascination as the scholars of art discussed the origins of this portrait. It appears it was a portrait of a princess. That it was taken out of a book.
A family history/genealogy book that was a wedding gift to the young princess. However she had a short life, the book was passed on to another relative. Who took it to Poland.
Amazing how the family genealogy made it from Italy to Poland. I would of love to find out more about books like that one. Amazing treasure, why would they cut it down and rebind it? The portrait I know if its really DaVincis is such a Art treasure. To the genealogist though the contents with the family history is a treasure of untold worth.
