LONDON, April THE missing
Velasquez painting, The Annuncla-
ton to the Shepherds" has been
found by a cOnnoisseur in London.
He has communicated the news of his
discovery to a few chosen friends, but
wishes to have his name kept secret
from the public.
The authenticity of the picture,
which is thickly coated with dirt and
varnish. is unquestloned. 1t is one
of the finest works of painters of the
early period. II was bequeathed by
the English painter Standish to Louis
Philippe, who exhibited IL in 1912 in
the Louvre, where it remained until
1853. three years after Louis Phil
ippes death. IL was then sold at
Christie's and bought by Rev. DR..
Davenport Bromley for s1,995.
The subsequent whereabouts of the
picture is unknown, but it is believed
to have come into the AshbuTton col
lection. from which IL was sold
privately at an unknown date.
