Great Guardi canvases found in Dublin shed hailed as masterpiece
Five grimy canvases fished from a Dublin shed are hailed as among the century's greatest art finds. London expert David Carratt says two years of restoration confirm the works are by Francesco Guardi and could fetch over 500000 pounds if sold. Carratt bought them for Geoffrey Merton, son of a Royal Art Society treasurer. Havana reports Fidel Castro's cabinet backs military trials for Batista supporters, extending wartime tribunals and suspending habeas corpus for counterrevolutionary charges.
