The reading and the lecture are both about Rembrandt. The author of the reading concerns that there are some paintings are considered that have belonged to Rembrandt but they were not painted by him. The painting about a woman's face is an example. The lecture casts doubt on the claims made in the article. He says that this painting actually belongs to Rembrandt.
First of all, the author of the reading points out that the dress of woman is not consistent. It is said that she wore a white linen cap that is a cheap thing that thing only servant used to wear, but the fur collar is very expensive. This point is challenged by the lecture. He rebuts that the pigment of the painting has shown that the fur collar was added after the painting was painted about 100 years. It is because someone would like to make the painting look more valuable.
Secondly, the author of the reading contends that Rembrandt was very good at painting light and shadow. However, in the painting these element do not fit together. The lecture refutes this idea that in the original painting, simple color reflects the light on the woman's face. The light and shadow looks very realistic as what people respected.
Finally, the author of the reading states that Rembrandt never painted on several pieces of wood as people see in the woman's face painting. The lecture on the other hand, opposes this idea that someone enlarged the wood in order to make it look more valuable and grander. It fact, in the original painting Rembrandt painted the woman on a single wood. Moreover, people have found that the wood that Rembrandt painted the woman is the same tree of another his painting.
