Test your Connoisseurship
May 31 2015
I'm afraid I'm away today (Monday) and tomorrow with filming for 'Fake or Fortune?' So in the meantime here is (at least, what I hope is) a fiendishly difficult round of Test your Connoisseurship. Can you name the artist, title and date? Good luck!
Update - many guesses, nobody correct so far. It's not what you think...
Update II - only one correct answer! It is Zoffany's Tribuna of the Uffizi. Many of you correctly spotted the identity of the detail shown (the St John then attributed to Raphael). Very pleased to have caught some of you out...
