on web TV of the Province of Florence (Florence TV) for the first time will be visible to all the a movie full of Leonardo Da Vinci masterpiece hidden for centuries behind a Vasari fresco in the Hall of Cinquecento in Palazzo Vecchio: the Battle of Anghiari .
The masterpiece was discovered in June 2005 after 30 years of studies to identify what is considered one of the finest examples of Italian Renaissance.
In the video, which premiered a few days ago in Palazzo Medici Riccardi, you can see the details of the painting that for centuries have been buried under the monochrome painting that covers them.
The pictures show scenes of battles, the rebuilding of the temple and even an elephant. The engineer Maurizio Seracini, through the use of sophisticated equipment, was able to show that the currently visible monochrome painting was not done by Leonardo da Vinci. The video shows the Florentine engineer the work of the Magi sull'Adorazione commenting on the results of diagnostic tests performed by his team dell'Editech, Diagnostic Center for Cultural Heritage. The famous painting by Leonardo has always been a source of mystery, has also been recorded by Dan Brown's controversial bestseller "The Da Vinci Code," Seracini engineer is the only real person living mentioned in the book.
For further details on the contents of the picture I refer to this link: Province of Florence.
