A painting that had spent more than a century languishing in obscurity will be attributed Wednesday to one of the greatest artists of the Renaissance, #AndreaMantegna (1431-1506). It means the painting, titled "The Resurrection of Christ," a wooden panel depicting Jesus's resurrection, may be worth about a thousand times more than was previously thought: between $25 million and $30 million.⠀
⠀
In March, the curator of the @accademia_carrara in Bergamo, Italy, a city about 30 miles north of Milan, was preparing a catalogue of works dating from before 1500 when he was struck by the excellence of a dark painting on a panel about 19 inches high and 15 inches wide. The work long ago had been removed from the museum's permanent exhibition, dismissed in the 1930s by a prominent art historian as a mere contemporary copy of a lost Mantegna.⠀
⠀
Several clues caught the curator's eye, suggesting that the painting had been cut from what was once a larger piece of work by the artist, called "Descent Into Limbo" (seen in the second image). The attribution to Mantegna now has the backing of Keith Christiansen of the @メトロポリタン美術館 in New York City, the world's leading expert on the artist.⠀
⠀
"It's a wonderful surprise," said Dr. Christiansen. "An absolutely top-quality work by one of the defining artists of the early Renaissance."⠀
