A painting that sold for $10 million nearly 30 years ago and was believed to be a self-portrait of Renaissance master Raphael may be a fake, according to Italy’s culture minister Vincenza Bono Parrino. Parrino said it is “too early” to tell if the painting--brought by its Venezuelan owner to Italy for examination--is authentic. The 19x14-inch painting, insured for $30 million, is being examined by the Ministry of Culture’s investigating committee.
