Possible da Vinci painting found in Scottish farmhouse; could be worth $150 million

I'm a big art fan; I've been to the Prado, Louvre, Uffizzi, Hermitage, etc. While this would be a major find, I am skeptical, although they compare it to Madonna of the Rocks, and it is similar.

$150 mill? Talk about life changing $$$...you could change the lives of every friend and family member.

I'm not that in to art really - not paintings anyway. But I've been to the Louvre and I'm sad to say that at the time I had zero appreciation for the things I saw. I'd love to go back someday.
