Sobre este artículo
Minneapolis: Minneapolis Institute of Arts, 1973. Cloth, [272] pages, illustrations; 22 cm. Catalogue of an exhibition at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, July 11 to September 29, 1973. Near fine. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Age toning. Dust jacket, with light edgewear, protected in a mylar cover. OVERSIZE! No priority/international, except by arrangement. Profusely illustrated. "'Fakes, Forgeries, and Other Deceptions,' a unique show organized by Samuel Sachs II, acting director of the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, was exhibited in 1973 and was the first such exhibit of fakes and forgeries by a major museum in over 20 years. The catalogue includes over 240 forgeries and originals in styles from ancient art to the present. Some of the forgeries are so outrageously bad that even an untrained eye can detect the original; but more often the fakes are subtle and convincing, and in these instances modern technology, x-ray analysis, spectroscopic examination, and pigment comparison have been necessary to separate the fakes from the originals. The truly education character of both the exhibition and the catalogue lies in Mr. Sachs' learned and lively comparisons between the genuine and the fake, and both are juxtaposed on the same page with accompanying text." - Publisher.. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo. Collectible.
