Simultaneous.
Review:
"[R[ich and wonderful....It is...[the] empathy for the passions of these scholars and artisans, Harr's respect for their dedication and his keen understanding of their workaday worlds...that elevates THE LOST PAINTING into something more provocative than your average missing-Caravaggio narrative."
New York Times Book Review, 11/13/2005
Review:"Anyone who's ever scoured a yard sale for that undiscovered antique will savor this engrossing story of a young art student on the trail of a missing 17th-century masterpiece by...Caravaggio."
