Is da Vinci's Fingerprint on the painting Adoration Of The Christ Child

Long attributed to a Dominican friar, the painting depicts Joseph and the Virgin Mary gazing at baby Jesus.
But during a recent restoration a fingerprint was uncovered in the upper left-hand sky portion of the painting.
Art scholars say if it matches that of Leonardo da Vinci, it could prove that the mysterious painting is his.
