Leonardo da Vinci painted Ginevra de' Benci in 1474-78, so the painting is 532 years old, which you can find out with simple math. The portrait is an early painting by the artist. Leonardo's style will develop even further and will be crucial in developing the High-Renaissance aesthetic.
The painting hangs in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. It's easy enough to find out, thanks to the internet.

Perhaps the National Gallery's explanatory site on "Ginevra de' Benci" would be helpful to you. It is well written and detailed. See below.
It's always best to go to the source -- in this case, the holding institution -- for information. The National Gallery's website has an excellent search function.
