导读：一位匈牙利艺术历史学家在看电影《精灵鼠小弟》时意外发现了一件失传多年的名画，真让人难以置信！
A painting that had been missing since the 1920s was rediscovered as a piece of art in the 1999 Stuart Little movie by a Hungarian art historian！
Gergely Barki was watching the movie with his daughter in 2009 when he noticed the painting， “Sleeping Lady with Black Vase” by Robert Bereny， hanging above the fireplace in the family’s living room.
“I went to the television and tried to clean the windscreen. Is it real？” he said.
Barki couldn’t believe his eyes and had to watch for the painting to appear in another scene to make sure he was wrong. Sure enough， it makes several appearances in the movie.
He began getting in touch with the people who worked on the movie to try to get the classic 10 years after the movie was made. He finally learned that the painting was bought for $500 by an assistant set designer who later sold it to a private art collector.
That collector has now brought the painting to Budapest for an upcoming auction at Hungary’s Virag Judit auction house on December 13. Its starting price is $138，000， but it is expected to sell for up to $325，000！
