Three highly trained assistents to one of to he greatest artists who over lived, credited with contributing to major masterworks couldn't learn oilpainting? A common evening class subjest, nearly universally considered much easier then painting fresco.

The artwork was already there, so not sure 'discovered' is the right word. Does it make a difference now we know it was painted by Raphael himself?
It will make a difference, of course. But should it?

People decide what should matter. Thats why there are pop star worship museums where mass-produced guitars and shoes that were worn are on display.

Probably not, considering that many (possibly most) of the well known modern and contemporary painters have other people put the paint on the canvas for them.

Interesting to see a dinosaur in one of the paintings.
