Portrait of the Young Maria de' Medici

1590s
Oil on canvas, 61 x 45 cm
Museo dell'Opificio delle Pietre Dure, Florence

The portrait represents the Princess Maria de' Medici, daughter of the Grand Duke Francesco I and Joanna of Austria. No regal attributes are represented, making it certain that Maria has been portrayed before her marriage to the King of France, Henry IV in 1600.
