Traditionally attributed to Gentile Bellini this painting, and another in the collection with the same title, were later attributed to an anonymous artist of the school of Verona. Recently the consensus is that these portraits or decorative profile heads are unlikely to be Veronese and instead derive from Tuscan painting of the late fifteenth century.
