News from Spain that a thorough restoration of an altarpiece has revealed the original paintings by Juan de Borgoña (1470-1535). The eight panels, preserved in the Church of la Santísima Trinidad in Alcaraz, Spain, had been practically hidden under crude overpaint and gilding from later centuries. It had been assumed by some scholars that the original paintings had been lost.
