Experts speak of "will-o'-the-wisp"
signatures, and many collectors have
encountered accidental strokes and
cracks that tantalizingly suggest a
signature. though It can never be
made definite. On the other hand.
there have been remarkable cases Of
such marks, after careful study, re-
solving themselves into famous

Sometimes the painters name is
most conspicuous. as. for example. in
Raphaels "Sposalizio' at Milan.
