A Painting long dismissed as a fake has been “reattributed” as a Vermeer. “Young Woman Seated at the Virginals, to be auctioned at Sotheby’s in July, will be the first Vermeer to come on the market for 80 years and is expected to fetch more than £3 million. Researchers have spent more than ten years studying the painting, which languished in near-obscurity after being “deattributed” to Vermeer in 1947.”
