Authentic Sluijters discovered in the Museum of Fake Art in Vledder

A painting, submitted for assessment at the Museum of Fake Art, turns out to be a genuine Jan Sluijters. A couple from Ruinerwold inquired two years ago whether a painting that had been in their family for years could be authentic. After thorough investigation and extensive cleaning, an expert has now attributed the painting to Jan Sluijters.
