Budapest theft[edit]

I've come across a highly syndicated AP report from late 1983 that asserts that this painting was stolen from the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest, Hungary and later found by police in a suitcase -- a huge suitcase? -- tucked away in a monastery along with 6 other stolen paintings, implicating 3 Italians and a Hungarian in the theft. However, there are many more recent sources that state that the painting has indeed been missing since 1939 and do not mention the 1983 theft in Budapest. Was this a misprint? Perhaps it was Botecelli's Portrait of a Young Man and the AP jumped the gun. Ruodyssey (talk) 10:43, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I imagine this is a different painting; the title really needs better disambiguating to Portrait of a Young Man (Raphael, formerly Krakow) as there are plenty of Raphael portraits of young men, or claimed ones anyway. Johnbod (talk) 17:12, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Good deal. Thanks. Ruodyssey (talk) 17:50, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unknown master?[edit]

There is a painting in this page that has as its caption "unknown master", giving its location as a private collection in Berlin, with no explanation as to what this means. Isn't the master the original copy? I suppose not? 108.5.178.141 (talk) 14:45, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No, the "master" means the painter - see old master. In this case he is unidentified. The term for an original is prime version. Johnbod (talk) 15:17, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
