<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 3701356, member: 76194&quot;]The Spanish master does it, but he melts culled ancient planchets to make forgeries of statues. Even though his modern forgery has been exposed by experts, many museums that were fooled insist the statues are real, though advanced examination techniques have shown the patina to be fake on the statues that have been examined, and the facial expressions of the master forger do not match the style of genuine classical statues.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sadly it seems like some modern museums prefer to go along with the con for ticket sales. So they accept these bronze heads without provenance and questionable style on loan, promote the exhibits and make money, then the questionable statutes now have a museum provenance that the owners can use to sell the forgeries for millions at auction.</p><p><br /></p><p>[MEDIA=youtube]1lNSXB4i4fE[/MEDIA][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
