All of this means, of course, that Jesus died an old man in South France, Mary Magdalene is really the savior of the world, womyn are the bearers of True Wisdom, and white male christians are the devil.
If these connections are not apparent to you, you just need to have lunch with Dan Browne. We'll get that scheduled as soon as he returns from counting his money in a large Swiss bank vault.

Isn't this the work mentioned in Code, where the heroine threatens to run her knee through it? IIRC this painting was done on wood, not canvas, and would be tough to cut with a knee bone...Oh well. Not the biggest booboo in Code, is it?

>>>"Why he painted over the work may never be known">>>>
I can tell you why he painted over it right now. A shortage of canvasses, he really didn't like the way it was turning out and he had a sale for another painting. I do that all the time myself. Not everything you start gets finished.

I love it how so many idiots are ready to accept the work of a painter,1400 years AFTER Christs death as gospel. shows just how much influence Satan really has. Nothing would please the Islamofascist more than to have the Christian faith undermined.
I'll stick with the Bible thank You.

Art Ping.
Let Sam Cree or me know if you want on or off the art ping list.
Artists paint over images allt he time. I think the more fascinating question is between the two Virgin of the Rock paintings: one in London, one at the Louvre. Why do two similar images, and does this question relate to why he painted over the other drawing underneath.
Trust a professor to take all this too seriously.

Poor old Leonardo probably knew exactly what he was doing when he painted over what he considered a lousy piece of work. But the "experts" won't let him get away with that, no sir.
