A Goya painting has been withdrawn from auction following doubts about its authenticity. ‘Santos Adorando el SantÃsimo Sacramento’ had an opening price of 1.2 million € in the sale planned in Lamas Bolaño.

The work measures 57 X 70 cms and is owned by a resident of Madrid. It was taken by the Historical Heritage unit of the Ministry of the Interior police last Friday, and it’s unknown how long their investigations will continue.
