Art experts discover that a painting long thought to be a fake Sandro Botticelli in fact came from the master's own Florence workshop.
In this photo made available by English Heritage on Thursday March 28, 2019, English Heritage Conservator Rachel Turnbull completes the conservation of "Madonna of the Pomegranate", a painting revealed as a rare example by the workshop of Botticelli. After stripping back a century of yellowing varnish and surface dirt, the painting thought to be a fake Sandro Botticelli, in fact came from the master’s own Florence workshop.
The painting had been assumed to be a later copy because it's different to the original in detail, and the thick yellow varnish had concealed the quality of the vivid reds, blues and golds.
