Dear all,<\/p>\n

Sylvie Buisson, President, recommends reading the work by Harry Bellet “Illustrious Forgers”<\/strong>, recently published by Actes Sud.<\/p>\n

\"\"In my opinion, it is a little gem of duplicity that will take you on a journey from one forger to another, providing, I presume, many interesting details on the methods of illustrious forgers, and very serious food for thought regarding those who have not yet been discovered…<\/p>\n

Read it between swims, or at the museum,… suspecting everything you see! It’s funny, erudite, disconcerting \u2013 and above all, exhilarating. <\/strong><\/p>\n

For centuries, masters of counterfeiting have deceived the greatest, so why not us\"\"?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Instead of rereading Vasari or B\u00e9n\u00e9zit for the umpteenth time, treat yourself to this bath of mischief!<\/strong> \ud83d\ude00\ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

Read on the publisher’s website, ACTES SUD:<\/p>\n

Thirteen famous scandals recounted in this delightful work, sometimes comical, often pathetic, occasionally tragic. These cases are analyzed to counter two ideas: no, there is no “genius” of forgery (except those who haven’t been caught); yes, they are everywhere, and they are very difficult to detect. 40% of the works at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York are fakes \u2013 at least, that is the opinion of its former director, Thomas Hoving. <\/em>
\nThis completely revised and expanded edition includes five new cases, each more fascinating than the last.<\/em><\/p>\n
