When one speaks of a work, many think of literature, although in reality, it could be a painting, a film, or a sculpture, or even an invention. This is a common mistake, well-known to experienced players.
So, the work is quite old, as in modern times, fashion is so changeable that comparing it to current trends would be inappropriate.
In this case, I would go with a painting; in 2007, it was X-rayed, and they discovered what was painted in the lower layer.
Another option is that a draft or sketch was unearthed, but this is less likely, although literature and sculpture are still possible in that case.
A film is unlikely in this context.

Hmm... then, maybe the Joconda?

I remember that recently, they explored it and found something interesting.

Correct answer, Medj )
Uranium did a great analysis, I liked it.
The thing is, Mona Lisa in the painting has no eyebrows. Initially, there was a belief that this feature corresponded to reality. That is, the eyebrows were shaved according to the fashion that was supposedly common in Florence at that time. Perhaps such a fashion really existed, however, in 2007, a Frenchman named Pascal Cotte found traces of eyebrows on the Mona Lisa. According to his version, which is more likely to be true, Leonardo did paint them, but over time the painting changed somewhat.
Well, Medj is asking another question?

Okay, let's ask a very simple question. Everyone knows this animal, but not everyone knows that it has exactly 4 teeth. P.S. Wikipedia says that some species have 4-6 teeth, but that's not the point.

An elephant, perhaps?

Correct. Ask your question.

A very easy question, right?

What do a tram and a horse have in common, and what do a bus and an ox have in common?

In other words, what do the pairs (tram + horse) and (bus + ox) have in common? Or what do a tram, a horse, a bus, and an ox have in common? Or is the answer made up of two concepts: one is what a tram and a horse have in common, and the other is what a bus and an ox have in common?

a horse-drawn tram
The size of a horse's rear end supposedly determines the gauge of a tram. This practice dates back to when horses pulled these things along rails. More precisely, there's a longer chain of events, involving carriages, the Romans, but never mind, it's not the main point. And it's not certain that this applies to trams; I only know about the English railway gauge.
As for the second point... I'm not sure yet.

Too bad it's not true...

So... Tram, tram... Annushka has already spilled the milk...
Here's a version: sometimes horses are fitted with blinkers. As a result, their lateral movement is greatly restricted by the rider's will, and they become less skittish and more predictable. In general, I would say that the concept of a horse with blinkers is similar to the concept of a tram.
A bus and an ox, on the other hand, have almost no restrictions on lateral movement.
But that's just a bit of a stretch. Ideally, there should be an option to answer in a way that immediately makes it clear which pairs are suitable and which do not illustrate the problem.

Here's an idea: sometimes horses wear blinkers.
But can you put this thing on a bull?

You can, but it's advisable to run away quickly after such an experiment.
