El Greco
Perhaps a search of Flea Towers will turn up my own El Greco.
A 16th Century painting by artist El Greco, valued at £500,000, has been discovered in an envelope in Spain. The Spanish family that has owned the oil-on-wood portable altarpiece, The Baptism of Christ, since the mid-19th Century, did not know what they had.
