Le Joueur de luth de Caravage: trois versions, un siècle de désaccords et un arbitrage par l’IA

Caravaggio did not paint many pictures, but he inspired thousands. That imbalance, a small documented oeuvre and an enormous afterlife of imitation, is why attribution in Caravaggio studies can feel like detective work conducted in half-light. Few cases capture that better than…
