 | | At the core of the exhibition were two paintings by Jan van Scorel belonging to the Centraal Museum, the Virgin and Child, acquired in 1995, and the Madonna with Wild Roses, and a third work, the Virgin and Child in the Kartinaja Galeria, Tambov. |
 | | As indicated by the sub-title, one aim of the exhibition was to examine the ways in which Jan van Scorel and his assistants made paintings, and so for each of the three depictions of the Virgin and Child there were shown related paintings that were either attributions to Scorel, workshop versions, or were clearly copies. |
 | | Molly Faries and Jan van Scorel are old friends and, as we have come to expect, infrared reflectography, x-radiography, and microscopic examination as well as stylistic analysis were brought together in a clear, careful, and insightful discussion. |
