Allegory of Happiness

Allegory of Happiness is an oil on copper painting by Bronzino, probably first produced for the Studiolo of Francesco I, signed BROZ. FAC. and now in the Uffizi in Florence[1][2][3][4]. It is now in a fluted and gilded 17th century wooden frame[5]. Most art historians date it to around 1567[6].
