概要
A seemingly abandoned crate at Christie's dock held an original 30x40 oil labeled "DECORATIVE REPRODUCTION - NO COMMERCIAL VALUE" and the painting inside matched auction photos - except the original with the same image had hung in Cincinnati for 16 years. How did two experts engineer a decade-long swapping machine of frames, provenance and pigment that fooled buyers and institutions?
In this episode, we follow the discovery on September 9, 2019 and trace the process used by two men to move originals and aged forgeries through different markets, reconstructing the steps that let a copy sell for more than twice the original's earlier price and leaving one unanswered question: how many other works rode this same system?
