Description from the seller
A remarkable work by Geert Jan Jansen, very nicely framed and in good condition.
Geert Jan Jansen
Oil on canvas
100 x 123 cm (without frame 75 x 100 cm)
Geert Jan Jansen (Waalre, 1943) is a Dutch painter and art forger who was arrested in France for the latter in 1994 and was convicted in 2000. Jansen's father, a technician at Philips, was an art lover, and Jansen began studying art history. During his studies he befriended the American art dealer Michel Podulke, owner of Mokum Gallery in Amsterdam, and Jansen organized exhibitions there. He later opened his own galleries Jacob and Raam, but had little success.
When his business began to suffer losses, he signed lithograph posters by Karel Appel to sell them as originals. Later he made his first forgery of an Appel, and sold it for 2600 guilders. Encouraged by this, he sent another forgery to a London auction. The auction house sent a photo of it to Appel, who stated that the work was genuine, and the gouache was sold for a record amount.
Provenance:
- From a private collection
Viewing is, of course, possible. In addition, we have our own in-house framers, who are celebrating their 85th anniversary this year. We also make use of restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to make use of this service, we would of course be glad to hear from you.
