History
In 1899 Adolfo Venturi adjudged the work to be "too high quality to be by Cariani", but Wilhelm von Bode attributed it to Cariani. Bode acquired it from a private Venetian collection in 1890; it entered the Strasbourg museum the following year.[1] Since then it has also been attributed to Giorgione or in 1932 by some art historians to Palma il Vecchio, but is now seen as sharing all the basic characteristics of works securely attributed to Cariani[3]
gollark: But, considering only somehow "real" universes, your choice after the boxes are filled can't affect the contents and it's "strictly better" to take both, as this provides more money than taking one. But everyone who does this gets less money than the oneboxer people due to them being predicted as doing that. Thus paradox.
