News about Leonardo Da Vinci: Just recently discovered in Montreal, a painting was attributed to Leonardo Da Vinci. In my humble opinion it is a genuine painting because it looks like a portrait of Catherine of Aragon. Indeed, if compared to the portrait of the Lady with ermine, it is obviously the same person. This portrait in my essay happens to be the portrait of Catherine of Aragon. The reasons as to why I am so affirmative are simply because in both paintings, Lady with ermine and the lady in the new found portrait are dressed with the exact same dress. The only obvious difference is the hair. However what explains the intricate braided hair is the fact Queen Isabella and her daughters had abundant and very curly hair.
