Rating: 4.0/5.0

This film is the story of the “Salvador Mundi,” latin for Savior of the World, a painting which may or may not have been created by Leonardo da Vinci. It originally was discovered in 2005 when a pair of art specialists bought it from a New Orleans estate for $1175 dollars. At first thought to be a copy, on closer inspection it was found to have characteristics of an authentic da Vinci, and was brought back to life by a restoration artist. This began years of high dollar speculation, culminating in a Saudi Prince buying it for a world record $450 million.

“The Lost Leonardo” premieres on August 27th, in select theaters including The Music Box Theatre, 3733 North Southport, Chicago. Click here for more info. Directed by Andreas Koefoed. “PG-13”
