Description
This work argues that the sculpture, the Lady of Elche, celebrated as the beautiful and patriotic symbol of timeless Iberia, and dated some time between 500 BC and 150 AD, is a clever fake, executed in 1896/97. Moffitt offers his 20 years of research and analysis in pursuit of his theory.
