Description: old man (looks like a scholar) pointing to a page in an open book as student next to him smiles and looks at book. Next to them is a tan globe with what appears to be a lamb constellation on it. Student's hand rests on globe. Both people are in shadows with a distinct ray of light against their faces-- Caravaggio style. Old man is possibly Eratosthenes.

Nope. I've searched high and low and I can't make this image pop. Renaissance, baroque, Caravaggisti, chiraroscuro....nothing.
What really bugs me is that I'm sure I've seen it before. A little hard to tell due to the image size, but it looks familiar.
Good luck, I'll be curious to see if anyone finds it
