The author in the reading states that the painting named "Portrait of an Elderly in a White Bonnet" attributed to Rembrandt is inaccurate. He suggests that it is not work done by Rembrandt. The professor in the lecture disagrees. She says, although points made in the reading are true, new research shows that, indeed, the painting is made by Rembrandt.
First, the author asserts that how the woman in the portrait is inconsistently dressed. It doesn't match the accuracy for which Rembrandt was known. The lecturer, while accepting the argument, claims that further research on the painting by X-Ray and analysis of colour pigment shows that the painting was modified 100 years later to make it more appealing, to make it look more formal.
Second, the author says that Rembrandt never used to make mistakes with lighting and shadows in his painting. The painting discussed here has some issues related to this. The lecturer refutes this argument by saying that if the modification done on the painting is removed then the sense of light and shadow matches perfectly. Originally, she was wearing a simple light-coloured fur collar, which would allow the light to pass and makes it look illuminated.
Finally, the author states that the painting has several different pieces of wood glued together but he often painted on a single wood panel. Once again, the lecturer disagrees. She goes on to say that to make the painting look more valuable and grand these additional pieces were glued to its top, bottom and sides later on during modification. Moreover, the wooden piece on which the painting is made is from the same tree which Rembrandt used to paint one of his previous paintings.
