a The painting Adoration of the Shepherds by Jacques Jordaens (1593–1678). The painting is an oil on panel with a size of 65.3 × 50 cm. The photo is provided with kind permission from Musei Civici di Vicenza, Italy. b Under raking light, a change made to the composition by the artist while painting, a so-called pentimento, can be observed above the head of Maria (in the white square on the inset). The pentimento shows the face of yet another person (highlighted by the dashed line). Photo by J. Davies
