One of many duplicates of albrecht dürer's self-portrait (long considered a fake). This painting is missing albrecht dürer's signature letters "ad" in the top left. Therefore, it cannot be a fake, but rather a duplicate of the original, which was made at a time when photography had not yet been invented and copying was the only way to produce a colored image. "the painter of this copy is completely unknown," says dr. Kubach-reutter in the nn article: "even fur coat copy stirs up dust" from march 1, 2012 at 8:00 a. M. Investigations by the german national museum in nuremberg, including x-rays and infrared radiation, have now shown a few days ago that the copy, which the people of nuremberg long believed to be by küfner, cannot be his. "the picture was painted before 1786, but küfner lived from 1760 to 1817," said dr. Kubach-reutter at the dürerhaus. The painting has been on display at the dürerhaus since march 1, 2012, after being archived for almost two centuries in the painting and sculpture collection of the nuremberg city museums with the number: gm51. Date: before 1786.
