500-year-old painting has been discovered in a flat in Italy and returned to a museum

A 500-year-old painting has been discovered in a flat in Italy and returned to a museum - where staff were unaware it had even been stolen. The copy of Salvator Mundi, which is believed to have been painted by Leonardo da Vinci, was found in a bedroom cupboard in Naples on Saturday. This copy is thought to have been painted by one of da Vinci's students. The 36-year-old owner of the flat was arrested on suspicion of receiving stolen goods, police said. "The painting was found on Saturday thanks to a brilliant and diligent police operation," Naples prosecutor Giovanni Melillo told the AFP news agency.
