Authenticity

edit

Is there any disputing the painting's authenticity? It certainly doesn't look like his other paintings. SevenTowers (talk) 05:30, 8 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Isn't it quite an early Velázquez? Typometer (talk) 14:00, 21 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

The Three Musicians is an oil painting by the Spanish Baroque painter Diego Velázquez (1599–1660). One of his earliest works, the painting depicts three young men around a dinner table playing music. It is painted in chiaroscuro, a Baroque technique that uses the contrast between light and darkness to achieve a sense of volume. The work is now held at the Gemäldegalerie in Berlin, Germany.Painting: Diego Velázquez
