I failed to spot this news from Italy at the end of last year that an Adoration of the Shepherds by Mattias Stomer had been rediscovered in the collection of the Diocese of Genoa. The discovery was made by Giacomo Montanari who spotted the picture whilst on a visit to the Diocesan archives. The canvas, which is in a less than perfect state, has been redisplayed in the Diocese Museum in the city.
