1460
unspecified
From the collection of J. Paul Getty Museum
Oenone (left end panel) is a 1460 unspecified by Francesco di Giorgio, a Early Renaissance work, held at J. Paul Getty Museum.
The painting depicts a woman dressed in a long, ornate gown and a crown-like headpiece. She holds a bow in her right hand and a shield in her left, with the shield featuring a blue lion on a gold background. The woman's attire is detailed with intricate patterns and designs, and her crown is adorned with points and shapes. The background of the painting is dark, which helps to highlight the woman's figure and the details of her clothing and accessories. The woman's pose and expression suggest a sense of confidence and strength, and the overall composition of the painting creates a sense of drama and tension.

Francesco di Giorgio Martini (1439–1501) was an Italian architect, engineer, painter, sculptor, and writer.
