AMERICANS EASY MARKS.
FOR BOGUS ART WORKS
French Editor Declares 80 Per Cent,
Of "Rembrandts" Owned in This
Country Are Forgeres.

!. Paris, April 21.-The revelations
made in the case of Count de Ga.
tigny, who, with the countess, is being
examined at Tours on charge of hav.
ing m1srepresented the origin of paint.
1ngs and the antiquity of furniture
purchased by Mrs. Charles H. Paine
OF this city, but formerly of Boston,
have caused profound impression
In the world of art and served to open
up the whole question of many-sided
traffic In sham paintings, other works
of art, and antique furniture.
Although the declarations of Henri
Rochefort, editor of the Paris, regard.
ing the Rembrandts may constitute
satirical exaggeration, it is the gen
eral opinion that there is a nucleus
of truth in his assertion that ~cele.
brated collections in hundreds of
+ homes in America and elsewhere con
tain spurious Rembrandts, as well as
copies of other masters. M. Roche.
fort has said that 80 per cent. of the,
"Rembrandts" owned in America
were forgeries.
|. ~ have seen SO many Turner'S -
said M. Rochefort, "Iahave almosct de.
cided Turner never existed. He could
not have turned out the works at.
tributed to him If he had lived 200
years. 1t is the same with Rem
brandt. 80
III never could convince my Ameri-
can friend that his collection of, the
school Of 1880 containing 'Millets' and
'Corots' was not genuine, but l did
convince him of the falsity of his
works of one great living artist, for
the artist himself, upon seeing the
pictures, exclaimed: I will send my
seconds to the man who says I did
that"
The recent exposures are hailed
here as helping to check the brazen
frauds perpetrated in France and else
where, and as warning to foreigners
to buy masterpieces with the great
est caution. -
