An habitually conservative scholar, Wells' sudden and effusive support for this portrait is out of character.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps it has something to do with the imminent release of Anne Henderson's "Battle of Wills", a documentary which explores the Canadian Sanders portrait's claim as the 'only authentic portrait of Shakespeare painted in his lifetime'. This is exactly the claim made by Wells of this latest contender, the Cobbes portrait.<BR/><BR/>This coincidence calls the timing - and uncharacteristic ado - of Wells' announcement into question. There's a lot at stake here, and Wells may be using this announcement as a pre-emptive strike against the claims made by the Sanders film.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
