What did you not know about Leonardo da Vinci and his Lady with an Ermine?
- The portrait of the Lady with Ermine is believed to have been painted at the express request of the Duke Ludovico Sforza who was the artist’s client.
- Da Vinci was a consummate perfectionist who worked with attention to the finest detail. It has been discovered that this painting has undergone several modifications before it is now in the version we see. In one version, there is no ermine.
- The ermine has also been given several symbols: perhaps an allusion to the Order of the Ermine with which Duke Sforza was decorated, an expression of the character’s purity, or a Renaissance pun on the girl’s surname, from the Greek galen meaning ermine.
- The portrait of the Lady with the Ermine is preserved and can be admired in the Czartoryski Museum in Krakรณw, Poland.
- The Lady with an Ermine is considered by critics to be the first modern portrait because the sitter is looking to the left, so we do not see a face painted from the front or in profile, as portraits were previously.
