NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE, THE LAST VERMEER, STARRING GUY PEARCE:
A revelatory biography of the world's most famous forger--a
talented Mr. Ripley armed with a paintbrush--and a deliciously
detailed story of deceit in the art world. It's a story that made
Dutch painter Han van Meegeren famous worldwide when it broke at
the end of World War II: A lifetime of disappointment drove him to
forge Vermeers, one of which he sold to Hermann Goering in mockery
of the Nazis. And it's a story that's been believed ever since. Too
bad it isn't true. Jonathan Lopez has drawn on never-before-seen
documents from dozens of archives for this long-overdue
unvarnishing of Van Meegeren's legend. Neither unappreciated artist
nor antifascist hero, Van Meegeren emerges as an ingenious,
dyed-in-the-wool crook. Lopez explores a network of illicit
commerce that operated across Europe: Not only was Van Meegeren a
key player in that high-stakes game in the 1920s and '30s, landing
fakes with famous collectors such as Andrew Mellon, but he and his
associates later cashed in on the Nazi occupation.
