Yes but the line near the bottom points out that they are sold out at every location within 200 miles of me. Amazon has some at $180 and even...
To me, forgery implies an intent to deceive by the maker. What do you call replicas made for study or new works inspired by the spirit of an...
#7. I am not a specialist and know little about this type but I need convincing beyond what was given. A and H are somewhat fluid in this period...
I would not call such an item a fake since it was not a copy of an ancient object but an original work of modern scholarship (or lack thereof)....
