Michelangelo rediscoveries are coming in thick and fast these days. Social media has been awash with news from Belgium that a Michelangelo, which is clearly not a Michelangelo, has been 'rediscovered' in the country. The work was purchased by a collector in an Italian auction who has since discovered 'monogram' potentially by the artist. The attribution was purportedly revealed to the press by Michel Draguet, former director and CEO of The Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium.
