OK, stupid question. If the bust wasn’t done by Leonardo, but was credited to him for century, isn’t the artist who did create it perhaps worth knowing about. After all his work is good enough to be mistaken for Leonardo’s.

It wasn't good enough for most people to make that mistake, apparently. It's nice to have it settled now.

That would be "The Gardener". There's a similar flip-over work by Archimboldo, "The Cook". This one is one of my faves: https://line.17qq.com/articles/mfgwpwpqy.html (wouldn't display, and I couldn't find a problem with the html).
