Answer

Judith Leyster was rediscovered in 1893 when her painting "The Merry Company" was attributed to Frans Hals. This led to the identification of other works by Leyster, who had been largely forgotten since the 17th century. Her rediscovery brought renewed attention to her work and established her as a significant figure in Dutch Golden Age painting.
