Behind the scenes

• The painting Portrait of a Lady appears to be have been painted by Giovanni Ambrogio de Perdis instead of Leonardo da Vinci as listed in its description, despite existing mentions of Leonardo having painted a portrait of Beatrice d'Este in a similar style.
• Some of the target portraits' descriptions have inaccuracies in regards to their dates of death:
  • Vieri de Pazzi's portrait lists his death in 1477, instead of 1478.
