The Painting That Shouldn't Exist: How a Fake Traveled Two Years

A painting was found leaning against a loading dock with no note, no wrapping, and a heavy museum-style gold frame - yet that same work had been sold two years earlier for $48,000. Provenance documents, a conservator's report, and a chain of silence all pointed to a carefully staged deception: how did a forged painting pass as genuine for two full years, and who built the invisible paper trail that made it possible?
In this episode, we follow the discovery at the Kessler Building, the arrival of a provenance package from Scottsdale, and the provenance investigator who began a long, patient inquiry; what started as a routine call to a non-urgent police line becomes a question about documents, attribution, and absence.
Person: Wayne Thompson
Date: May 9, 2019
Location: Kessler Building, Dellmore
Person: Shannon Cook
Amount: $48,000
- The painting was an oil on canvas approximately 30 by 40 inches found at 8:00 AM on May 9, 2019.
- Wayne Thompson had worked for Dellmore Municipal Utilities for 11 years and had passed the Kessler Building 143 times.
- Victor Farrow arrived at 9:15 AM and identified the work as in the tradition of Louis Pratt.
- The provenance package from Phil Navarro in Scottsdale arrived 11 days after the painting was found.
- A condition report dated 2016 bore the name of conservator Alan Briggs and omitted mention of a crack in the upper right quadrant.
