It has been brought to my attention that the above mentioned painting - Diego Velazquez's Las Hilanderas (The Spinners) c. 1657, is a reversed image. Thanks to Carlos Ygoa for bringing this to my attention. The image is reversed on the Art Renewal Center web site. It is indicated that the painting resides at the Museo del Prado, Madrid, so I trust that Carlos would know best. Makes you wonder how many other images are reversed, cropped or misrepresented in some way.
I've reworked the calculation mentioned above and noted the location with the red mark. It does make a difference. Diego now gives a sigh of relief.
Also, another not too shabby painting by Velazques: Juan de Pareja.
