We address the problem of estimating the position illuminants in realist master paintings. To this end, we apply an algorithm from computer vision that has been used to detect forgeries and composites in digital photographs. Our contributions are three-fold: 1) we introduce the application of a two-dimensional, modelfree occluding contour algorithm to the problem of locating the source of illumination in realist master paintings, 2) we introduce a maximum-likelihood criterion and computational method for integrating estimates from multiple occluding contours, and 3) we apply our methods to a key painting adduced as evidence in a recent controversial theory about painting praxis in the Renaissance and Baroque.
