Van Gogh original hidden under MFA Boston painting

BOSTON -- A new Van Gogh painting has been found hidden under another painting at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.

The work "Wild Vegetation" was discovered in an x-ray of another Van Gogh painting, "The Ravine." Van Gogh painted the second work on the same canvas four months after the original.

Experts from the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam recognized the hidden painting as resembling a drawing the museum had.
