Researchers at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam have revealed a rediscovered painting by Rembrandt which was brought in from a member of the public for further investigations. The work, Vision of Zacharias in the Temple, had been included in an exhibition as Rembrandt in-full back in 1898 but by 1960 had been demoted in publications. Click on the link above to read the technical analysis which was undertaken to help prove this painting to be an early work by the master.

The painting will be on public display in the museum from 4th March (tomorrow) onwards.
