Portrait of a Boy
Portrait of a Boy is a 1495 oil on panel portrait, now in the Uffizi in Florence. In the past it has been attributed to Lorenzo di Credi, Viti, Jacopo Francia, Raphael and others, but Giovanni Morelli's reattribution of it to Perugino is now widely accepted. Although the lack of a landscape background is unusual for this painter, the style is typical of his portrait technique.

The subject was long identified as Alessandro Braccesi, but is now held to be unknown. A copy of the work is in the Galleria Borghese in Rome.

Lorenzo di Credi
Lorenzo di Credi (1456/59 – January 12, 1537) was an Italian Renaissance painter and sculptor best known for his paintings of religious subjects, and portraits. With some excursions to nearby cities, his whole life was spent in Florence.  He is most famous for having worked in the studio of Andrea del Verrocchio at the same time as the young Leonardo da Vinci, who seems to have influenced his style considerably.

He trained with Verrocchio, and became his principal assistant, inheriting the workshop after his master's death in 1488, when Lorenzo was still in his twenties.  He largely continued his master's style, working until at least the 1520s, by which time he was becoming rather old-fashioned.  He does not seem to have painted frescos himself, although his workshop may have done so. Vasari says that he avoided large paintings of all sorts, preferring to create smaller works with a meticulous finish.
