Lopez, Jonathan
The Man Who Made Vermeers: Unvarnishing the Legend of Master Forger Han Van Meegeren
Boston, Mariner Books, 2009.. Hardcover with dustjacket, 339 pages, 23.5 x 16 cm. ENG fine condition
In his thoughtful and elegantly written account -- which he calls "a liar's biography" -- Jonathan Lopez gives the story unexpected depth. Van Meegeren is exposed not merely as an unprincipled peddler of phony masterpieces but as an opportunist with Nazi convictions....Mr. Lopez is steeped in the literature of the period and it shows to fine effect.
