View story Courtauld "fake" exposed as a real Dutch period piece 1 / 0 http://art2news.corank.com/tech/story/courtauld-fake-exposed... Submitted by Alexandria-the-Great 1 month, 1 week, 15 hours ago At the Courtauld Gallery in London, research has revealed that what was once thought to be a forgery by the notorious Han van Meegeren (1889-1947) is an actually an authentic Dutch Golden Age piece. The painting, called The Procuress, is now believed to be a 1622 scene from the Baburen brothel. There's posibility that the piece could have once hung in Vermeer's home.
