We don‘t know the identity of the sitter, if indeed this is a portrait in the traditional sense, rather than a general picture of a woman designed to encourage such commissions. The title La Schiavona, meaning ’the Dalmatian woman‘, was given to the picture in the seventeenth century.\n\n’La Schiavona‘ is self-possessed and has a commanding gaze unlike any woman in an earlier European portrait. Titian’s approach is original not only because the painting is three-quarter length and apparently life-sized but also because it was painted to make an impact from a distance.\n\nThe profile bust portrait, inspired by ancient Roman sculpture and cameos, appears to represent the sitter herself but may commemorate a member of her family. It may relate to the contemporary debate about the rival merits of painting and sculpture. The letters ’T.V.' inscribed on the parapet stand for Tiziano Veccellio (Titian).\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/paintings\/titian-portrait-of-a-lady-la-schiavona\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"National Gallery of Art London - Portrait of a Lady La Schiavona\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNational Gallery of Art, London\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Titian","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":50510009139443,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (47\" x 38\")","offer_id":50510009172211,"sku":null,"price":2768.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (19 7\/8\" x 16 1\/8\")","offer_id":50510009204979,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (24 3\/8\" x 19 3\/4\")","offer_id":50510009237747,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (29 7\/8\" x 24 1\/4\")","offer_id":50510009270515,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (38 1\/2\" x 31 1\/4\")","offer_id":50510009303283,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (46 1\/4\" x 37 1\/2\")","offer_id":50510009336051,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (54 1\/2\" x 44 1\/4\")","offer_id":50510009368819,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (65 3\/8\" x 53\")","offer_id":50510009401587,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/PortraitofaLady_LaSchiavona.jpg?v=1789447508","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/portrait-of-a-lady-la-schiavona-ngal1700","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
