Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Matthias Grünewald — The entry states Grünewald assisted Albrecht Dürer on the Heller Altarpiece in 1509, but he was commissioned separately for the wings, not as an assistant.

Matthias Grünewald — The entry says Grünewald bought a house in Frankfurt, but there is no reliable evidence he purchased a house there.

Pontormo — The bearded figure at the far right of the Deposition is identified as Nicodemus, not Joseph of Arimathea, and the self-portrait speculation is not consistently associated with that figure.

Lucas van Leyden — The claim that Lucas van Leyden's daughter Marijtje married painter Dammas Claesz de Hoij is not supported by established art-historical canon; the relationship is uncertain and not widely accepted.

Lucas van Leyden — The claim that their offspring included prominent artists throughout the 16th and 17th centuries is not reliably documented in standard biographical sources.
