This outright forgery of a lost work by Da Vinci surpasses the original with its supple brushstrokes of a masterful, delicate impasto technique, while foreshadowing Dadaist collage and the niceties of the Eastern European Soviet era Brutalist School. The black velvet painting surface only enhances its superb charismatic charm. Sold to an anonymous wealthy collector by Southebys for six million dollars, it was later recovered from a roll-away dumpster after the filming of an episode of the Hoarders cable tv series.
