First Leonardo DaVinci Found in 100 Years?
Art experts believe they have identified a new Leonardo da Vinci— in part by examining a fingerprint on the canvas, convinced art experts that it’s actually a da Vinci.
Canadian-born art collector Peter Silverman bought “Profile of the Bella Principessa” at the Ganz gallery in New York on behalf of an anonymous Swiss collector in 2007 for about $19,000. New York art dealer Kate Ganz had owned it for about 11 years after buying it at auction for a similar price.
