Alesso Baldovinetti s Portrait of a Lady in Yellow depicts the profile view of a lady with whispy blonde hair set against a bright blue background. The profile was used for portraits by many painters of the Early Renaissance. Baldovinetti s representation of a lady in yellow shows the sitter almost to the waist. Stitched to her sleeve is a pattern of three palm leaves which is probably not merely a decorative pattern but the emblem of her family or of one into which she has married, or is soon to marry into. She wears pearls on her head and around her neck which represents her wealth and her hair is plucked back which was the fashion of the day.

Due to these acts and uses, it had thus been unofficially considered to be the country s motto. The change from E Pluribus Unum to In God We Trust was generally considered uncontroversial at the time, given the pressures of the Cold War era. More recently, its constitutionality has been questioned with relationship to the separation of church and state outlined in the First Amendment to the UnitedStates Constitution First Amendment .
