Holbrook's Trunk

Tuesday, September 29, 2009

Follow-up

Here's an interesting follow-up to the Van Meegeren story our intern John blogged about this summer: a painting formerly identified as a Van Meegeren forgery has now been reattributed as a genuine 17th-century work. It'll be interesting to see what Errol Morris weighs in with.

The Georgia Museum of Art


The Georgia Museum of Art, the official state museum of art, strives to fulfill the legacy of its founder, Alfred Heber Holbrook, who was so dedicated to promoting the importance of art that he would load paintings into the trunk of his car and take off around the state. His impulse to sing the praises of the visual arts—in as relatable a way as possible—still drives us and this weekly blog today. Visit our website at georgiamuseum.org.
