That wouldnt’ be surprising to find that some of the works of the Masters were created through some sort of assembly line in order to pump out paintings for the maximum dollar.
Also, lesser artists would have been apprentices and they probably helped out where they could.
Can’t an painter’s brushwork change over the course of time, or due to illness or partial disability?
“St Joseph’s face has been thought to be less well done than the others in the frame...”
Joseph didn’t get much write-up in the Bible either. Seems intentional - in both the Bible and the painting. For good reason. No slight against Joseph, but he wasn’t a main figure in the story.
Rubbish in, rubbish out!
ChatGPT still makes illegal chess moves.
Don’t believe a word of their tripe.

The British series “Fake or Fortune” is an excellent show featuring art dealer and historian Philip Mould and Fiona Bruce who hosts the UK Antiques Roadshow. There has been 11 seasons of the show, with approximately 4 episodes in each season. Mould and Fiona help owners of various forms of art, to prove or disprove whether a piece of art is an original. They work with various art experts and conservationists in order to help discover whether the work is a fake or a fortune. Some of the episodes are available on YouTube.

If I remember my art History from the past, the great artists of that time often had assistants who did part of the work.
I am reminded of an art critic who showed a famous painting was not done by the artist as the strokes were left handed.
OH WAIT! That critic was Francis the Talking Mule in one of his movies! Don’t remember which one!
