Interesting news from France that a conservation project undertaken on a painting in the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Libourne may have uncovered an autograph work by Guido Reni. Donated to the museum in 1949, and long thought to be a copy, conservation work undertaken by the Centre de Recherche et de Restauration des Musées de France (C2RMF) has concluded that it may in fact be earlier than the two other autograph versions known in Madrid and Naples.
The work has gone on display today at the Chapelle du Carmel in Libourne so that the public may go and have a look for themselves.
