La Belle Ferronniere (Portrait of a Lady from the Court of Milan), c.1490/95 Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

We create our paintings with museum quality and covering the highest academic standards. Once we get your order, it will be entirely hand-painted with oil on canvas. All the materials we use are the highest level, being totally artist graded painting materials and linen canvas.

We will add 1.6" (4 cm) additional blank canvas all over the painting for stretching.

High quality and detailing in every inch are time consuming. The reproduction of Leonardo da Vinci also needs time to dry in order to be completely ready for shipping, as this is crucial to not be damaged during transportation.
Based on the size, level of detail and complexity we need 8-9 weeks to complete the process.

In case the delivery date needs to be extended in time, or we are overloaded with requests, there will be an email sent to you sharing the new timelines of production and delivery.

TOPofART wants to remind you to keep patient, in order to get you the highest quality, being our mission to fulfill your expectations.

We not stretch and frame our oil paintings due to several reasons:
Painting reproduction is a high quality expensive product, which we cannot risk to damage by sending it being stretched.
Also, there are postal restrictions, regarding the size of the shipment.
Additionally, due to the dimensions of the stretched canvas, the shipment price may exceed the price of the product itself.

You can stretch and frame your painting in your local frame-shop.

Once the painting La Belle Ferronniere (Portrait of a Lady from the Court of Milan) is ready and dry, it will be shipped to your delivery address. The canvas will be rolled-up in a secure postal tube.

We offer free shipping as well as paid express transportation services.

After adding your artwork to the shopping cart, you will be able to check the delivery price using the Estimate Shipping and Tax tool.

The paintings we create are only of museum quality. Our academy graduated artists will never allow a compromise in the quality and detail of the ordered painting. TOPofART do not work, and will never allow ourselves to work with low quality studios from the Far East. We are based in Europe, and quality is our highest priority.

La belle ferroniere is the name used for two Renaissance portrait paintings. The first is thought to be of Lucrezia Crivelli and is attributed by some to Leonardo da Vinci; it is in the Louvre. It is sometimes known as Portrait of an Unknown Woman. The other portrait, of Cecilia Gallerani, which is almost certainly by da Vinci is more often called Lady with an Ermine.
The painting's name stems from ferroniere a jewel held to the forehead by a chain worn by women in the Renaissance.
Bernardino de'Conti or Boltraffio may have painted the Unknown Woman portrait. The painting is located in the Louvre museum in Paris, France. The painting was briefly featured in the opening sequence of the 2006 film The Da Vinci Code. The painting had been sold by Sir Joseph Duveen as a Leonardo, and when this was questioned his client sued in a notorious court case, eventually settled for a relatively small amount.
