A Man Reading (Saint Ivo?)
C. 1450 painting / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Man Reading (Saint Ivo?) is the name given to a panel painting in the collection of the National Gallery, United Kingdom.[1] The work has been attributed to Rogier van der Weyden, and as to depict Ivo of Kermartin.[2] The National Gallery's website attributes it to the "workshop of Rogier van der Weyden".[1] It has been claimed that the work is not by van der Weyden or other artists working under his name in Early Netherlandish painting, but is instead a forgery by Eric Hebborn.[2] According to an article published in The Independent by Geraldine Norman, in 1996 Hebborn claimed to have painted the National Gallery's Saint Ivo.[3]
