The article states that there were doubts if Rembrandt the famous Dutch painted the portrait of elderly woman, because it's wasn't express his talent in painting, and provides three reasons that support these doubts. However the professor explain that all the examination that done by expert confirm that this portrait was indeed work by Rembrandt.
First, the reading claims about the way of dressed woman in the portrait especially cap and fur collar, which was not match Rembrandt style in painting, because he was very accurate and aware to every details in his drawing.The professor refutes this point by saying the checking of the portrait by x- ray showed that someone painted over the original color,to increase the value of it.
Second, the article posits that there is a problem in the face of the woman, it was illuminated due to her cloth. However, the professor says that in the original painting the women was wearing a simple cloth of light color that reflects light that eliminates the woman partial face, that justified why her face was in partial shadow.
Third, the reading says that the portrait painted in more than one piece of wood which are adhere together. The professor opposes this point by explaining that the person who added the color over the original one, was also enlarged the size of the portrait from boundary by glue the additional wood piece with the original one to make it grand and variable.
The reading and lecture are both about the Rembrandts' painting named as Portrait of an elderly woman in a white bonnet. The author of the reading feels that there are many problems with the said painting that suggest it could not be a work of Rembrandt; howbeit, the lecturer challenges the claim made by the author. The lecturer cast doubt on the main points made in the reading by providing three reasons.
To begin with, The author argues that there is something inconsistency about the way the woman in the portrait is dressed. He feels that Rembrandt, who was known for his attention to the details of his subjects' clothing would not have been guilty of such inconsistency. Nevertheless, This argument is challenged by the lecturer. He claims that in the original painting, lady did not wear fur collar. Furthermore, he mentions that someone included the fur collar for the purpose of increasing in the value of the painting.
Secondly, the reading states that Rembrandt was a master of painting light and shadow, but in this painting, these elements do not fit together. Nonetheless, The lecturer rebuts this by mentioning that the fur collar is responsible for these elements( light and shadow) do not fit together In the replica and not an original painting.
Finally, The author posits that after the examination of the back of the painting, it was painted on a panel made of several pieces of wood glued together; however, the lecturer believes that original painting was made on panel of single wood
