As its price soars, so do questions about its authenticity: is this painting really by Leonardo da Vinci? From the moment the painting is bought for $1175 at a shady New Orleans auction house, and the restorer discovers masterful Renaissance brushstrokes under the heavy varnish of its cheap restoration, the Salvator Mundi’s fate is determined by an insatiable quest for fame, money and power. Synopsis: THE LOST LEONARDO is the inside story behind the Salvator Mundi, the most expensive painting ever sold at $450 million.
Written by: Duska Zagorac, Andreas Dalsgaard, Mark Monroe, Christian Kirk Muff, Andreas Koefoed “A surprisingly suspenseful story about art, money, and politics.” Tells the tale of the most scrutinized painting of all time.”
Reviews:“A bona fide cinema crowd-pleaser! Nothing quite like a good story, well-told.”
