The Infanta D. Leonor, also called Dona Leonor of Portugal or D. Leonor of Lancastre, and more recently, abroad, "Leonor of Viseu," the name of a sideline of his father the Infante D. Fernando (2 May 1458 to 17 November 1525) was a Portuguese princess of the House of Avis, and queen of Portugal from 1481, by marriage with his cousin D. John II of Portugal, the Perfect Prince. By their exemplary lives, the constant practice of mercy, and more Christian virtues, some historians reached the epitome of Princess Perfeitíssima, inspired by the epithet of the king her husband, whose height has always managed to keep the court of history.

João II de Portugal, o Príncipe Perfeito. Pela sua vida exemplar, pela prática constante da misericórdia, e mais virtudes cristãs, alcançou de alguns historiadores o epíteto de Princesa Perfeitíssima, inspirado no cognome do rei seu marido, a cuja altura sempre se soube manter para o juizo da História.
