One research project told properly, from question to finding.
Mauritshuis, The Girl in the Spotlight
Two weeks of scanning in a glass studio found that the background was not empty but a green curtain, and that Vermeer painted eyelashes the naked eye cannot see.

Research project
Two weeks of scanning, in public
The background was not empty
Behind the sitter, where generations saw flat dark space, the scans found a green curtain.
There are eyelashes
Invisible to the naked eye. Macro X-ray fluorescence and microscopy found tiny hairs around both eyes.
The blue is the expensive one
The bright particles of lazurite in the headscarf point to high quality ultramarine.
The three findings above are the Mauritshuis project's published results, summarised. Your project replaces them.
The layout is the deliverable: hero, four facts a reader can hold, then findings numbered so they can be cited. The findings shown are the real published ones from The Girl in the Spotlight, kept short. The amber block is where your photograph goes, and it stays amber until it does.
