I have recently been reading much about art forgeries and famous art forgers. I don't know why but I have come to admire them, perhaps because I have a disdain for pretentious art critics and "experts" who can so easily be fooled. Art forgers are superb artists in their own right but lack an audience - they have not been successful when signing their own work. For financial success, you do not so much need talent but certainly the right connections.
