Talk:Portrait of Federico II Gonzaga

Query on auction date

The article lists that "The latter had bought it at an auction after the beheading of Charles I of England in 1627," Charles I was executed in 1649- is the date of the auction wrong- or just that of the beheading? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.88.3.148 (talk) 10:04, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
