Legendary forgers staged a solo exhibition

In general, the story of Vermeer absolutely incredible: in the XVIII century, his works attributed to Rembrandt (while for us to clear a huge difference between these artists).

At the end of XVIII century Vermeer opened Charles Le Brun (Charles "Le Brun), husband of artist Elizatet Vigee-Lebrun, a famous playboy, red tape, and art dealer.

But then it you can imagine, once again forgotten (just as a peasant, who was lying in hospital next to the one my friend: he had drunk had fallen from the 9 th floor at 3-d it "caught but not kept; result - fell in the snow, broke his little finger)!

Then - see an excellent post in Leningrad.
