Maria Rivera was sorting through thousands of donations when she discovered the painting and knew it was special because it looked like one she had seen at a museum.

The painting has been authenticated as an original work of Italian artist, Giovanni Battista Torrigliaby. It has since been placed in an online auction which ends January 16th.
