El Retrato de la Lozana Andaluza es una novela escrita por Francisco Delicado en el siglo XVI. La obra narra la vida de una joven llamada Lozana, quien se convierte en una cortesana en Roma. A través de sus experiencias, Delicado ofrece una visión satírica de la sociedad renacentista, explorando temas como la sexualidad, la corrupción y la hipocresía. La novela destaca por su estilo realista y su lenguaje coloquial, que reflejan la vida cotidiana de la época.
Francisco Delicado was a Spanish writer and editor of the Renaissance. Little is known about his life. He was born in Cordoba, Spain and, for uncertain reasons, he moved to Rome, where he Italianized his surname to Delicado. After the sack of Rome, he went to Venice where he wrote his novel Portrait of Lozana: The Lusty Andalusian Woman, that continues on the lines of the novel in dialogue exemplified by Celestina. The book is a social and historical portrait of Rome and its dark side in the first years of the 16th century, and one of the first works of the picaresque novel. He was also a disciple of Antonio de Nebrija and editor of books such as Amadis de Gaula (1533), Celestina (1531–1534), Primaleon (1534) and some medical treatises like El modo de adoperare el legno de India and De consolatione infirmorum.
