Lucrezia di Lippo di Iacopo Guidi

"Lucrezia di Lippo di Iacopo Guidi," painted between 1525 and 1528 by Andrea del Sarto, is an oil on panel portrait that originally formed part of an altarpiece's predella in a church in Gambassi, Italy. This artwork depicts Lucrezia, the wife of the patron Domenico da Gambassi, presenting her in a casually posed manner within a circular format. The background is rendered in soft, muted tones that complement her 16th-century attire, adorned with a delicate necklace. Surrounding her portrait, painted strapwork, revealed during recent conservation efforts, suggests an interconnected decorative pattern that would have unified the overall altarpiece. The artist skillfully employed highlights at the base of the roundel to replicate the natural light of the church, enhancing the three-dimensional illusion of the piece.
