Art collector PETER SILVERMAN recounts the story of the most spectacular rediscovery in Art History-the portrait of tragic 'Princess' Bianca Sforza by Leonardo da Vinci-and the scandalous conspiracy orchestrated by a group of curators and second -tier scholars to discredit a work that they initially decried as a 19th century pastiche. This new and expanded edition of the international best seller contains key contributions by renowned scholars Martin Kemp, Mina Gregori, Cristina Geddo and others. The picture, sold first by Christies In 1998 for under 20,000 dollars as 19 th century German school, is currently insured for 200 million dollars. It has been enthusiastically viewed by millions in a number of major exhibitions. An exciting read cover to cover for layman and specialist alike.
