The British National Gallery's 'Samson and Delilah', a work valued at 18 billion won, is once again under suspicion of being a forgery. It was purchased for 2.5 million pounds in 1980, now worth over 10 million pounds ($18.5 million). Criticisms point out rough brushwork, inaccurate anatomy, and use of modern plywood on the back. A Rubens expert claims the gallery avoids discussion, while the gallery denies any doubts about its authenticity.
