Samenvatting
As a young student in the late 1960s, with apparently little or no training in the chemical or scientific methods of dating paintings and apparently with little or no hands on experience as a painter, the author Christopher Wright made the determination and brazen announcement that the Georges De La Tour painting THE FORTUNE TELLER which hangs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art is a forgery. His assertion that THE FORTUNE TELLER was a forgery was rejected by all the leading art experts of the day. This book ART OF THE FORGER is a culmination of Wright's arguments that despite all the physical evidence and art expert's opinions that THE FORTUNE TELLER is authentic, they are wrong and he is right. A controversial book which argues that the painting The Fortune Teller, attributed to the French... (Lees verder) painter Georges de la Tour (1593-1652), is a twentieth century forgery.
