But lots of these pictures cannot be attributed to a particular artists - we just don't know enough about Rembrandt's studio to be certain. If you can't question an attribution without having another name, then everything will be a Leonardo or a Rembrandt! <br /><br />Of course I agree that one should base judgment on seeing the original, but sometimes even a reproduction can give you enough reason to have serious doubts. And a badly damaged original can be just as hard to judge as a good picture of a well preserved original.Michael Savagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11557727287816852329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454459186129750328.post-71162342810993265572013-12-31T00:32:25.462-08:002013-12-31T00:32:25.462-08:00 giudicare ..senza proporre un nome alternativo..è... giudicare ..senza proporre un nome alternativo..è troppo facile..i dipinti vanno visti dal vero..Marco Aureliohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13547545535433791945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454459186129750328.post-82437585723350721082013-12-31T00:31:00.346-08:002013-12-31T00:31:00.346-08:00 giudicare ..senza proporre un nome alternativo..è... giudicare ..senza proporre un nome alternativo..è troppo facile..i dipinti vanno visti dal vero..Marco Aureliohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13547545535433791945noreply@blogger.com
