note:  Authorship for this portrait has been frequently questioned. Cavacaselle (1882), Berenson (1953), Brizio (1963), Gruyer (1864), and Oberhuber (1982) see this portrait as an autograph Raphael. Meanwhile, del Vecchi (1982), Dollmayr (1895), Hartt (1958) and Ortolani (1948) all agree that at least part of the portrait was executed by Giulio Romano. https://www.nga.gov/collection/art-object-page.12131.html
