The Daily Mail falsely claims "Intimate portrait of Liz Taylor at 24 seen for the first time"

The Daily Mail buys a hoax, or perhaps creates one for April 1? "Intimate nude portrait of Liz Taylor at 24 seen for the first time"

I've brought this link back to clear up the wide-spread misunderstanding created by the Mail's lack of fact-checking.

This picture is not newly released. It has been around forever, and it's not Liz Taylor. The Fake Detective exposed it in 2002.

The woman is actually Lee Evans, and the photograph was taken by Peter Gowland in 1940, when La Liz was 8. It was published by Peter and Alice Gowland, in a book called "Classic Nude Photography," on page 39.( The entire book is online on Google Books.)
