New results with regard to the Flora bust controversy: radiocarbon dating suggests nineteenth century origin

Ina Reiche et al.

Summary: This article discusses the authenticity of the Flora wax bust in the Bode Museum in Berlin, which was attributed to Leonardo da Vinci. Through chemical analysis and C-14 dating, researchers found that the bust is primarily made of spermaceti extracted from sperm whales and dated to the 19th century, refuting its connection to da Vinci.
