Vincent Van Gogh painting Sunset at Montmajour discovered in attic unveiled in Amsterdam
Sunset at Montmajour, a landscape of trees and sky in the south of France in Van Gogh's familiar thick brush strokes was painted in 1888 but has been lying in the attic of a Norwegian collector who bought the painting in 1908 but dismissed it as a fake.
The painting was unveiled at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam on Monday, with Axel Rueger. the director, describing it as a "once in a lifetime experience".
It can be dated to the exact day it was painted because Vincent described it in a letter to his brother, Theo, and said he painted it the previous day July 4, 1888.
He said the painting was done "on a stony heath where small twisted oaks grow".
Researcher Teio Meedendorp said he and other researchers "have found answers to all the key questions, which is remarkable for a painting that has been lost for more than 100 years".
The painting was listed among Theo van Gogh's collection as number 180, and that number can still be seen on the back of the canvas. The work was sold in 1901.
Mr Rueger said the museum had itself rejected the painting's authenticity in the 1990s, in part because it was not signed. But new research techniques and a two year investigation had convinced them.
The long lost painting was made at around the same time as some of Van Gogh's most famous works, including Sunflowers and The Bedroom.
"This is a very, very special morning and you're seeing a very, very happy director in front of you," Mr Rueger told AFP.
"When I was told that it had been authenticated as a genuine Van Gogh I could not believe it."
The museum declined to be drawn on the identity of the mystery collectors.
"Unfortunately we cannot divulge too much about the identity of this collector as we need also to protect his privacy," Mr Rueger said.
"But what I can tell you is that the painting has been lying in the attic for most of this time."
