A Case of Forgery Revisited: Last week, we looked into a Gauguin forgery. Now, one art dealer explains (in The Art Newspaper,) how he himself was duped by the Greenhalgh forgeries. "In the middle of that night I woke up and realised it was almost certainly a fake.

The Case of the Mexican Suitcase: The New York Times reports that three cardboard valises of negatives belonging to Robert Capa, one of the pioneers of modern war photography, has been found.
