Well...
When Nicholas took away Cassandra's powers and she began to age rapidly, Vicki, Julia and Roger discovered that Angelique's portrait suddenly appeared as it does in the above photo.
Yes, that's true and that I do remember. I thought you were referring to when Vicky
first bought the portrait into the house at Collinwood. I think this is what Josette is referring to in the post and why didn't Carolyn and her mom recognize the photo in the Rumson house as the same one that sat in the drawing room at Collinwood.
After all, Julia noticed it right away.
The portrait was in perfect condition then and it also had been sitting in the Collinwood drawing room for quite some time before the aging took place. So Carolyn and the others had ample time to view it before Sam Evans actually aged the picture.
