oil on panel, 64 x 18 cm
1507-1508.

The Portrait of a Young Woman, also known as La Muta, is a portrait by the Italian Renaissance artist Raphael, c. 1507-1508. It is housed in the Galleria Nazionale delle Marche, in Urbino.
The panel, from the artist's Florentine period, has been variously identified as Elisabetta Gonzaga or, more convincingly, as Giovanna Feltria, wife of Giovanni Della Rovere.
The picture portrays an unknown noblewoman over a near-black background, showing some Leonardesque influences. Although only recently attributed to Raphael, it is ranked among the best portraits by his hand.
