"Scholars are examining an unsigned canvas depicting the martyrdom of St. Lawrence, part of the art collection of the Jesuit order, to determine if it is by Caravaggio. Several historians note that the painting bears many of the artist's stylistic trademarks; others urge caution, noting that no documentary evidence has been found that he ever tackled this particular subject."
Ohhh, it's the 400th anniversary. Perhaps that's part of the reason there's been so much in the papers lately...
