A crezut că are o icoană veche pe peretele din bucătărie. Era, de fapt, o avere. Tabloul s-a vândut cu 24,2 milioane de euro

A medieval painting, initially thought to be an icon, was sold for €24.2 million after being identified as a work by Cimabue. Discovered in a woman's home in France, the artwork titled "The Mocking of Christ" dates back to the 13th century. It was auctioned by Actéon and fetched a price significantly higher than the estimated €4-6 million. Expert Eric Turquin confirmed its authenticity, linking it to a larger altarpiece. The sale marked a significant moment in the art world, highlighting Cimabue's influence on Western painting.
