Portrait of Woman Revealed Beneath Van Gogh Painting | LiveScience
by Shannon at 1:59 pm EDT, Jul 31, 2008

A previously unknown portrait of a woman by Vincent van Gogh has been revealed in a high-tech look beneath another of his paintings, it was announced today.

Scientists used a new technique to peer beneath the paint of van Gogh's "Patch of Grass." Already it was known there was something there, likely a portrait of some sort. Van Gogh was known to paint over his work, perhaps as much as a third of the time.

Not one of his best. Maybe thats why he painted over it.
