That article shows how art can tell a tale. It also shows how much can be
read into a painting. Through research and testing, inferrences can be drawn
from points in the pictures. painters often hid things in their work that
only an educated eye could find. Without the documentation of this, it would
go unknown and lost to history.
Makes me wonder how much is true and how much is made up to fit a given
situation.
