Sorry for the cross post. I was looking for a copy of the Wedding at Cana by Allesandro Allori to look at Catherine de Medici's dress and found this instead. Ever since I made my first "Eleonora" dress from Janet Arnold's book I have found her fascinating. I know the above URL is ridiculously long but snipurl doesn't want anything to do with it. It is a portrait of Eleonora in the Hermitage collection. It is unlike any portrait of her that I've see, but Allori was a fosterling of Bronzino so he might have had some sittings. The dress is fantastic!
