The Forger’s Spell: A True Story of Vermeer, Nazis, and the Greatest Art Hoax of the Twentieth Century

July 4, 2008 – 9:15 am

The Forger’s Spell: A True Story of Vermeer, Nazis, and the Greatest Art Hoax of the Twentieth Century
The Forger's Spell: A True Story of Vermeer, Nazis, and the Greatest Art Hoax of the Twentieth Century

As riveting as a World War II thriller, The Forger’s Spell is the true story of Johannes Vermeer and the small-time Dutch painter who dared to impersonate him centuries later. The con man’s mark was Hermann Goering, one of the most reviled leaders of Nazi Germany and a fanatic collector of art.

It was an almost perfect crime. For seven years a no-account painter named Han van Meegeren managed to pass off his paintings as those of one of the most beloved and admired artists who ever lived. But, as Edward Dolnick reveals, the reason for the forger’s success was not his artistic skill. Van Meegeren was a mediocre artist. His true genius lay in psychological manipulation, and he came within inches of fooling both the Nazis and the world. Instead, he landed in an Amsterdam court on trial for his life.

ARTnews called Dolnick’s previous book, the Edgar Award-winning The Rescue Artist, “the best book ever written on art crime.” In The Forger’s Spell, the stage is bigger, the stakes are higher, and the villains are blacker.

Open Question: Where to travel in Europe (not the usual)?
I’m in college and have visited Europe a few times in the past years and have been to most of the touristy hot spots. I’ll be heading back in the end of September to go to Oktoberfest and am thinking of other places to go to. I’ve already been to Spain, France, Italy, England, Netherlands, Germany, Prague, Budapest, Croatia, Austria, Switzerland to name a few and that really doesn’t leave me with any easy options. I’ll be getting a 15 day unlimited travel Eurail pass but don’t want to be stuck on a train to whole time. Also, I am using airline miles to get there, so I’m open to places to fly into. Places I’m definitely going to are Dublin, Amsterdam, Rome, Munich. But besides that it’s up in the air. I was thinking about going to Scandinavia (any places I NEED to check out there?). I also want to go to Greece, but it seems like it would take a while to get to; same with Bulgaria or Romania. So any input on places to go to would be great, maybe a quick itinerary? Thanks
