The Metropolitan Museum of Art announced its acquisition of a long-lost painting by Renaissance artist Rosso Fiorentino (1494–1540) in a press release on Thursday. The painting Madonna and Child with Saint John the Evangelist (1512-1513) was considered lost for centuries, until a recent conservation treatment uncovered the figure of Saint John the Evangelist in the foreground of the work.

Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669) has been identified as the artist of a painting missing for decades, adding another masterpiece to his impressive portfolio of religious art. The Rijksmuseum, the Netherlands’ national art and history, announced March 2 that experts have definitively proven that Rembrandt painted the “Vision of Zacharias in the Temple.” The confirmation follows an extensive two-year investigation into the technique and materials used in the painting.
