Description
A sneaky way to educate kids on the Old Masters' artworks? A mystery solved only by honing one's logic and observation skills? Or just pure entertainment tracking down phony art frauds with names like Bonnie Barracuda and Attila Anchovy?
Who cares! The Art Fraud Detective: Spot the Difference, Solve the Crime! is written by Anna Nilsen, a former art history teacher and prize-winning artist. Published in association with the National Gallery in London, England, this book comes complete with a full-color catalog of some of the world's greatest masterpieces from the likes of Rembrandt van Rijn, Jan van Eyck and Edgar Degas; fun art fakes and forgeries; and what every good art detective needs: a bound-in magnifying glass.
