  • Two years ago, the painting titled “Salvator Mundi,” set a record as the most expensive piece of art ever sold at an auction. The image of Jesus is one of fewer than two dozen works attributed to renaissance master Leonardo da Vinci. But in a new book, one author paints a different picture, questioning if the painting is a genuine Leonardo. Author Ben Lewis joins "CBS This Morning Saturday."

    It must be impossible to determine if the painting is by da Vinci or partly by da Vinci and partly by his students, or fully by his students.
    But, apparently:
    The world needed a new da Vinci.
    Christie's needed the commission.
    A prince needed to spend some money.

      No, They have known for over 100 years that he did a paint a painting of The Savior Jesus Christs. Through Historical archives, Letters, and Historical documents. So they knew it had existed.
      Do you have any Idea how much art of Famous Painters were stolen during WW2 by the Nazis. That hasn't been found yet!
      We are talking Billions worth of Art.
      But I just read who were actually the ones that Confirmed and agreed that it was a Real Leonardo Da Vinci
      I think it was 25 of the Best experts from that Period, on top of Individual Da Vinci Scholars, All of the Italian experts and Historians in the time of Da Vinci were alive. Also validated it, Through their Historical documents. They were extremely skeptical, when they first heard about the Painting. They were asked by the Italian Government to give their opinion on top of the Information they could provide to see if any indications that it could be Authentic.
      They looked at everything, X-rays, Parchment, Colors, Took Test of the Paint, Color composition, And compared all of it with his other paintings. We are talking about looking at the individual air bobbles through Microscopes, and looked for any sign of Forgery.
      They also came back and Validated it was a Real Leonardo.
      I think its funny, That just because one expert wrote a book. And questioned the Confirmation. By research he had done on his own, He has never done any test, or Looked at it in real life other than when it was up for sale.
      I'm sorry, He ask some valid questions but it is exactly that he just starts the process of discrediting the Validation, Done by the best independent Experts in the world, That have spend their entire life to studying Leonardo Da Vinci and Italian History.
      And how did he do that?
      By writing and publishing a Book about it, And then goes on a promotion tour of the book on different Media Sites.
      Where he questions the authenticity to us Normal People, Who doesn't comprehend that any painting can be worth 400 Million USD. And have been Scammed and Manipulated by Companies, Banks, Billionaires and Governments all our life.
      Of course normal People will jump on his side, Because we want the Rich to feel how we feel. And if one of them bought a Painting for 400million he is an idiot.
      But to Discredit the best experts in this field, that actually did all of the investigation and research from the Fibers in the Parchment down to the Air bubbles in the paint. and they say it is from the period and the colors misture, what they consist off and the Dating of all those test shows it was painted in that period with materials from that period.
      I think its an Historian that wrote a book and saw it as a opportunity to cash in big, By being the guy who claims its fake.

    The painting has been excessively (and poorly) restored. It's become a hybrid, in which some areas have been painted by a master and other areas by a clumsy restorer, which overall gives the painting a perplexing appearance. Images of the painting before the current restoration show significant damage. Filling in the damage is not the proper way to restore a masterpiece and preserve its integrity.

    Wait..... The Mona lisa has fingerprints all over it when Da vinci used his fingers to create texture and mixed colors. So why don’t they see if it matches? So did they restore it to the point where none of his prints can be found on the texture of the paint? That would be convenient.
    There is a documentary of this on how they proved one painting is real by matching the prints Da vinci left on the paint. I remember the narrator saying it’s better than a signature.

    • @henrylivingstone2800
      @henrylivingstone2800 3 года назад +1

      There’s no way to prove that the fingerprints are da Vinci’s. There’s the issue of handlers, assistants, later restorers and owners who may have imparted finger prints. And in any case one must have a complete print to discern any significant identification. And I don’t think da Vinci used his fingers to mix colors directly onto the board, he probably mixed colors on his palette then applied with brush (if he used his fingers at all). And using your fingers to create texture and mix colors doesn’t leave full prints.

      They don't care what's painted on the canvas. Currency goes up and down, but paintings, especially ones from Da Vinci will always continue to rise as it ages. If it ever does come out that this is 100% legit no questions, then the price value will skyrocket. I also assume they wanted to keep it out of the Vatican. Those two were fighting it out past the 300 million mark. It was cut throat, 400 million is higher than some countries GDP. The fact they would even think about paying that kind of money they had to have been at least 95% sure it was real.

    The painting itself is a contradiction of what it represents. So In my opinion of those who seek it, become distant from what it represents. We live in a society where we spend 400 mill on a painting rather then using it for the benefit of those unfortunate. I'm not religious at all, as in I don't follow any religion, but I do believe in god. I just wonder though, for those who believe in Jesus, do you think if he saw this going on, that he would approve?!,

You never need to worry when people spend a great deal on things because money goes round and it helps people, all that matters is that its moving.

The Bible also describes him as being so not this long-haired white skinned effeminate European man that has been used as an image of Christ for centuries to hide the true identity of the Israelites. knowledge is increased the truth is out halleluYah,!!
