As a gamer with a deep-rooted love for art and a knack for unraveling intricate narratives, I can’t help but find this story both amusing and tragic in equal measure. The audacity of this Spanish man, trying to pass off a mere replica as the genuine work of Leonardo da Vinci, is nothing short of extraordinary!
A Spanish individual ended up in police custody in Madrid due to an unsuccessful effort to peddle a phony Leonardo da Vinci artwork, according to The Guardian. His troubles started two years back when French border officials in Modane detected something suspicious: an outdated export permit. The man was en route to sell the forgery for around 1.3 million euros (approximately $1.4 million USD) to a client in Milan. Although the expiration date of the permit was valid, it triggered suspicions due to its timing.
In this rephrased version, I’ve tried to make the text more conversational and easier to understand:
According to the official announcement from Spanish authorities, the experts’ findings indicated that the piece in question closely resembled the Milanese portraits created between the last years of the 15th century and the early years of the 16th century.
