Britain’s National Trust now has a Rembrandt on its hands. Well, it’s had the painting — a portrait of the artist — for several years, but until a few weeks ago the work of art was held in storage, thought to be a fake. 

After months of investigation, analysts and researchers are putting the price of the painting — deemed authentic — at $50 million, several times what it was worth before.

While Britain’s National Trust has no plans to sell their new Rembrandt, many “selfies”  have been auctioned for millions of dollars.
