Talented Art Forger to Exhibit

Once given to turning forgeries in order to pay bills and rent, Dutch art forger Geert Jan Jansen’s is now exhibiting his work in the central city of Zeist.

After stumbling into his talent as a cash-strapped young man, Jansen flooded art collections of Europe and beyond with brilliantly forged masterpieces for three decades before he was caught in 1994.

Frequently arrested but never convicted, Jansen is proud to show off his goods with two signatures: that of the original artist and his own. More from Yahoo! News.
