Simiolus Simiolus has just begun publishing its 42nd volume and we are proud of it! In its first issue, we offer an important study on the innovation of Netherlandish funerary sculpture in the early sixteenth century

by Ruben Suykerbuyk and an exciting reading of Michelangelo’s criticism of Flemish painting as recorded by Francisco de Holanda by James Hall. Another paper proves that the only portrait of Felipe de Guevara that we thought we had is of someone else altogether. The centerpiece of this issue, however, is an in-depth study and bilingual publication of the first notes on Netherlandish art and artists

C A R AVAG G I O ’ S Cardsharps on Trial: Thwaytes v. Sotheby’s Richard E. Spear In 2006 Sir Denis Mahon announced that a version of Caravaggio’s famous Cardsharps that he had bought at Sotheby’s was not a copy, as the auction house had stated, but was by Caravaggio himself. As a result, the vendor, Lancelot Thwaytes, sued Sotheby’s for negligence.

Vividly written by an eminent art historian who acted as an expert witness in the case, this handsomely illustrated account of one of the major art trials of recent times will be of great interest to dealers, conservators and lawyers, as well as all admirers of Caravaggio.
