Dear all,

As part of the homework for issue 516 I was meant to look for the reference for the example about the National Gallery under E10 Transfer of Custody and associated proprties. Joe Padfield has kindly done some detective work on the example but there is no proper reference for it. There is a passing reference on a couple of webpages from an exhibition in 2013 (e.g. https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/paintings/research/meaning-of-making/vermeer-and-technique/drying-and-paint-defects) but nowhere near what is needed.

The example may have been fictitious in the first place, or the reference is lost, or we are simply talking about another National Gallery.

In any case, I think George is tasked with finding a different example from the Getty.

All the best,

Thanasis
