The Young Woman in a Black Dress is an oil painting by Titian dating to around 1520 and now held at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. It was later misattributed to Palma il Vecchio then to Giovanni Cariani until Roberto Longhi reattributed it as by Titian which is now the critical consensus.It depicts a woman half-length facing the viewer with her torso slightly twisted to give a sense of movement. One hand holds her black dress over her white shift with a generous cleavage.
