4.0

I got this book through NetGalley.

This is the story of a painting, its forgery, the artist, the forger, and the painting's owner. The author delves into the lives everyone involved in the painting, so we get a lot of history of the 1600s and the art of the forgery. I love novels about painters and paintings, especially if there is a forgery involved. Doesn't matter whether the artist or the painting is real, if the story is told well enough that's good enough for me.
