The Este — Beatrice d'Este, Duchess of Bari and Duchess of Milan

Beatrice d'Este, Herzogin von Bari, Herzogin von Mailand
Beatrice d'Este, Duchess of Bari, Duchess of Milan and cousin and through her marriage also aunt of Isabella of Aragon, the Duchess of Milan

This portrait had the correct title: "Beatrice d'Este" at least until 1912 (look at: Edgcumbe Staley: Lords and Ladies of the Italian Lakes, London 1912, opposite of page 236), before one of the "experts" amongst the art historians changed it into "Barbara Pallavicino". But this portrait is an identification portrait and therefore easily to identify as "Beatrice d'Este". By the way, this portrait got a question mark under its title "Barbara Pallavicino" in the Uffizi (Florence), where it is located. The art historians there have probably also no idea how this portrait came to its (wrong) title.
