Ginevra Bentivoglio by Ercole de‘ Roberti https://www.nga.gov/artworks/361-ginevra-bentivoglio
Both this panel of Ginevra Bentivoglio and the companion portrait of her husband, Giovanni II Bentivoglio, also in the National Gallery of Art, were created when the family was at the height of its power. Giovanni, a major political figure in northern Italy, ruled the city of Bologna from 1463 until his expulsion for tyranny in 1506.
