The $30 painting bought from a sale of antiques turned out to be a masterpiece from hundreds of years ago.
The painting was purchased from Yard Sale in 2017, according to AG News Gallery, a popular antique auction house in London, where people sell their second-hand items outside their homes on Sundays. This picture was actually taken by the famous painter of the Renaissance, Albrecht Durer. Albrecht was a famous historical artist who died in 1528.
The theme of this drawing was 'The Virgin and Child'. Although all of Albrecht's masterpieces have been discovered, these important images were hidden from experts. That is why it has been called a rare image.
The painting was completed in 1503, according to Clifford Shorer, an archaeologist associated with the gallery. It eventually reached a bookstore owner and has been with the art gallery ever since. However, much work has been done to prove this, as many such claims have been proven to be false in the past.
But Clifford traveled internationally on 17 flights for three consecutive years, discussing the painting with some of the world's top experts, and everyone confirmed it. A panel of experts at the London Museum, led by a panel of experts on the life of Albrecht, considered the issue.
All experts put the potential value at at least $10 million.
