An art historian has claimed that a painting held by the National Gallery is not authentic, and may have been painted by someone else. The painting, which only came to light in 1929, is disputed by some as to its authenticity and is often compared to works by Rubens. The National Gallery has refused to acknowledge any challenges to the painting's authenticity, despite claims from the art historian that a former trustee of the gallery, Sir Isaiah Berlin, had made it clear that he wanted the "truth" about the painting to come out.
