If you can direct me to an authoritative website, I'd really appreciate it. I'm a high school teacher, and I need a reliable source, not someone's Geocities site.

I guess the obvious answer (and the easiest) is Andy Warhol who explored the very nature of mass reproduction in his paintings of Marilyn and the Campbells soup tin, for instance.
See link attached to the Warhol museum etc
I like the previous post regarding Gentilleschi, which has reminded me of the two versions of the Madonna of the Rocks by Leonardo (one at the Louvre and one at the National Gallery in London).
See the second link to a Wake Forest University site

I wrote a paper on Gentileschi and I recall that she repainted one of her works. 1st- Judith Slaying Holofernes (Naples version)
2nd-Judith Slaying Holofernes (Uffizi version) There are slight differences in the two. The most obvious difference is the appearance of her signature gold gown in the Uffizi version.
