Lotto


A funny story this. Someone bought this painting 20 years ago -- it was dirty, covered with grime, barely visible -- because he wanted the nice old frame. Then he had it cleaned and -- discovered a Lotto. Look at Christ's hands; and the executioner's arm. Wow.

And if you are already reading the wsj, read this, too. It rips into Lang Lang most entertainingly; and without one expletive. Monsieur Flaubert, take note.
