“Life imitates art far more than art imitates life.” —Oscar Wilde.
In September 2013, the art world reeled when a painting, which had languished for years in a Norwegian attic, was revealed to be a previously undiscovered masterpiece by Vincent Van Gogh.
Inventing Van Gogh pulls us into the tale surrounding Van Gogh’s famed, final, lost self-portrait that has never been seen... until now. This time-bending mystery about the making of art introduces us to the legendary artist himself, the modern-day art expert whose quest for the lost portrait consumes his life, and the protégé who is lured into perpetrating a breathtaking, audacious fraud.
