Book Summary

A Forger’s Tale is the candid memoir of Shaun Greenhalgh, one of the most talented and notorious art forgers of modern times. From producing fake works attributed to artists like Gauguin, Lowry, and ancient civilizations, to tricking major institutions into acquiring them, Greenhalgh details the methods, creativity, and audacity behind his forgeries. The book is not only a behind-the-scenes look at the world of forgery but also a critique of the art establishment, exposing how greed, prestige, and oversight allowed his fakes to pass as genuine masterpieces. Blending crime, art history, and personal reflection, it is both entertaining and revealing.
