"Teaching with forgeries is far from a recent phenomenon. Margaret Morgan Grasselli... recalls being faced with a Matisse drawing faked by... Elmyr de Hory in her sophomore tutorial..."
"This skew makes sense, as drawings are particularly susceptible to the tricks of the forgery trade: they are rarely signed... many collectors at the time made copies as part of their connoisseurial activities."
"Known fakes eventually move on to become something surprising: practical tools used by art and educational institutions to sharpen scholars' connoisseurship."
