[Rarebooks] FS: Paintings. Genuine - Fraud - Fake

[Joslin Hall Rare Books]

TITLE: “Paintings. Genuine - Fraud - Fake. Modern Methods of Examining
Paintings”

By R.H. Marijnissen.
Published in Brussels by Elsevier in 1985.

DISCUSSION: "Anyone involved in the world of painting, whether amateur or
professional, is faced with the problem of authenticity and in times like
ours, in which the prices of works of art have risen to dizzying heights,
it is tempting to try to pass off fakes, which is not to say that such
practice is anything new. R.H. Marinjnissen, long associated with the
famous Institut Royal du Patrimoine Artistique/Koninklijk Institut voor
het Kuntstpartrimonium in Brussels, provides both the layman and the
expert with an exhaustive series of criteria by which a judgment about a
painting can be made. His observations are confined to the painting of the
Low Countries, with which he is thoroughly conversant."

DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 8"x10.5", 415 pages, color and black & white
illustrations, dust jacket.

CONDITION NOTES: The dust jacket has some light wear and soil. The book
itself has some minor soil, but otherwise is clean and nice, with a tight
binding.

PRICE:  $250 -
