Artful Deception: Italian Master Forgers
A Lecture by Marco Grassi, Painting Restorer, New York
Italy is the land that has given birth to some of the world's greatest painters, sculptors and architects. This same creative genius was occasionally channeled toward imitation and deception. This illustrated talk will explore that lively corner of the Italian art world which has been populated in all periods by a colourful cast of gifted rogues, gullible collectors and hapless 'experts'.
