X-radiograph(s) of "Merry Company (copy ?)" 

Editor: Here we have an X-radiograph of "Merry Company (copy ?)," after Frans Hals. At first glance, it's almost ghostly! What do you see in this peek behind the curtain, so to speak? Curator: It's like an archeological dig into the past, isn't it? I see a story of layers, pentimenti maybe... perhaps even secrets buried beneath the surface of what we think we know about the painting. It makes me wonder, what's hiding in our own depths? Editor: Wow, I didn't think of it that way. Layers of history and maybe even deception. Curator: Art whispers, doesn't it? Editor: Indeed. It certainly does.
