"Selvaggia Sassetti" (1487-1488), a portrait by Davide Ghirlandaio, depicts Selvaggia Sassetti, a young woman of the Florentine elite. The painting showcases Ghirlandaio's mastery of realistic portraiture, capturing the subject's subtle features and elegant attire. Selvaggia's composure, with her gaze directed slightly downward, suggests a sense of quiet confidence and refinement, typical of the Florentine Renaissance. This intimate portrait exemplifies the growing interest in individual representation during the period. The artwork is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
