Description:
|
The female portrait known as The Mute Woman represents a return to the influence of Leonardo. It was moved to Urbino from the Uffizi, where it had been stored for two hundred years. It was attributed to Raphael only recently. Leonardo inspires the pose of the figure (whose characteristically crossed hands constitute a very clear reference to the Mona Lisa). It can be assumed to have come from the Rovere family and may be a portrait of Giovanna Feltria, daughter of Federico da Montefeltro and wife of Giovanni della Rovere.
