Portrait of a Lady, dressed in a gold embroidered costume is a painting by the Italian baroque painter Artemisia Gentileschi. It is assumed to have been painted in the early 1620s, just after Artemisia had moved to Rome. It currently belongs in a private collection. The identity of the sitter is not confirmed, but strongly believed to be Caterina Savelli, “Principessa di Albano”.

The painting was put up for sale by Jacqui Safra at Sotheby's in January 2022 with an estimate of 2-3 million dollars. It was eventually sold for 2.6 million US dollars.Portrait of a seated lady, three-quarter length, in an elaborate and gold-embroidered costume, possibly Caterina Savelli, Principessa di Albano, Property from the Collection of J.E.
