Focus on this artwork and explain the Inspection and analysis.
The painting, which was donated by Anne Parrish Titzell in 1957 to the permanent collection of the Wadsworth Atheneum, was called into question by art historian Walter Feilchenfeldt in 1990 as to its authenticity. It  was declared genuine by the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, after having been sent there for inspection by the Wadsworth to determine if it was a work by the hand of the artist or an impostor. An x-ray image of the painting shows the outline of the portrait of a man underneath the flower painting.
