These images are
actually from two different near-contemporary (meaning made before the extensive
damage to the or4iginal fresco) copies. The above image is from the copy

by Pieter Rizzoli (AKA Gianpietrino), hangs at Oxford's Magdalen college
in England.
Both images depict
an obviously female figure seated to the right of Christ.
