Just wanted to say that I found a third fake version of the Wistful Painting and a second fake version of the Graceful Painting. It seems that most pieces have a second or even third fake versions.

Here's the third fake of the Wistful Painting. It combines both the star-shaped earrings from one of the fakes and the closed eyes, from the other.

And here's the second fake version of the Graceful Painting. Most people found the taller woman, but this one is also mirrored.

Funny enough, all art pieces available today for me were fakes (the other two were Las Meninas and The Milkmaid)
