The article states that the painting could not be a work of Rembrandt and provides three reasons to support his claim. However, the professor of the lecture explains that experts found the painting is made by Rembrandt and refutes each of the author’s reasons.
First, the reading states that the women in the portrait is dressed inconsistently. The professor refutes this point by stating that the color is not original as it was repainted by someone else. The professor explains the reason behind repainting as to increase the value of the painting.
Second, the article claims that as a master of light and shadow, his painting elements do not fit together. However, the professor contends that originally the portrait was a simple light color and the face did not appear partially in shadow. Moreover, the original painting would look like a normal painting of Rembrandt.
Third, the reading avers that the painting was painted on a panel made of several pieces of wood glued together. The lecture opposes this point by saying that to make it more valuable somebody added some wood frame. The lecture also states that the original panel of the painting and other panels of Rembrandt painting is from the same tree.
In conclusion, although the reading and the lecture are both about the originality of work done by Rembrandt, the three main points made in the reading are effectively challenged by the lecturer.
