Fauxberg

Calling on four decades of experience as a specialist dealer in the creations of Carl Faberg, Andre Ruzhnikov exposes both the worldwide forgers producing fake Faberg and the dealers who knowingly trade in them. The corruption reaches all the way to the heights of St Petersburgs venerable Hermitage Museum and to the depths of a so-called Faberg Museum in the German spa-town of Baden-Baden. Ruzhnikov demonstrates how the great Faberg fraud reaches into the deepest recesses of the Kremln. Pacy, punchy and provocative, Fauxberg is essential reading for lovers of art, and justice.
