Framing the fake. Requests:  0 Summary:  Jonathan Lopez has drawn on never-before-seen documents from dozens of archives to write a revelatory new biography of the world's most famous forger. Neither unappreciated artist nor antifascist hero, Van Meegeren emerges as an ingenious, dyed-in-the-wool crook who plied the forger's trade far longer than he ever admitted--a talented Mr. Ripley armed with a paintbrush. Lopez also explores a network of illicit commerce that operated across Europe.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 759.9492 Meegeren Lo Checked out 05/29/2024 Add Copy to MyList
