In the shadow of WWII, a forgotten artist executed the ultimate deception, selling a 'lost' masterpiece to Hermann Göring. But this wasn't just a crime of profit—it was a calculated act of artistic revenge that would confuse experts for decades.
Han van Meegeren didn't just copy Vermeer; he invented a new period of the master's life, exploiting the desires of critics and collectors to believe in a miracle. Using Bakelite and baking ovens, he alchemized modern paint into 17th-century history.
We decode the visual language of 'The Supper at Emmaus', revealing the subtle anachronisms that went unnoticed by the Nazi elite. This is a story about the subjectivity of beauty, the arrogance of the art world, and the thin line between genius and fraud.
