In his Vite, Vasari indicated that the first Medici woman to have been portrayed by ducal commission was Maria Salviati, Cosimo's mother.
From the rear cover
'Briefly put, Medici Women is a thorough study of portraits of Medici women at the court of Duke Cosimo I. Langdon not only brings to light a plethora of information about these women (and their portraits), but also rediscovers long-lost portraits and convincingly identifies a number of sitters who were previously misidentified or not identified at all. For these reasons alone, the book makes an important contribution to scholarship, and greatly advances our understanding of these women's role in the dynastic strategies of the Medici family.'-- Konrad Eisenbichler, Centre for Renaissance and Reformation Studies, University of Toronto
