The author analyzes one of Sweden’s finest renaissance portraits belonged since 1820 to the collection housed in Gripsholm Castle. The portrait was donated to Gripsholm’s portrait collection by Baron Adolf Ludvig Stjerneld. The oil painting, executed on oak panel and measuring 79 x 58 cm, depicts a young female beauty. Comparative studies with 16th-century portrait painting reveal that the Gripsholm painting has several formal points in common with portraiture of the Vasa renaissance. According to the author the portrait represents Gustaf Vasa’s daughter Princess Cecilia (1540-1627) betrothed to the Polish ambassador, Count Jan Tęczyński (1540-1563).
