Next door to a lunch counter advertising a grilled cheese special is a gallery where Van Gogh’s "Irises" shares the walls with
Monet
landscapes and works from the Italian Renaissance.
They are all fakes. They are all for sale. "A forger? Yes. We’re expert forgers you could say. But we make no attempt to deceive. We don’t pretend to sell original works. We have all the thrill of being a forger, but no risk. "
With prices for original art rising into the tens of millions, some art lovers are turning to high-quality
copies
done by
expert artists
. In addition, some museums confronting skyrocketing insurance premiums are considering
stashing
the authentic pieces and displaying a reproduction.
No major U. S. art museum is known to be displaying reproductions in place of originals.
Such a practice
would raise questions about why people visit museums in the first place. But museum security has become a growing concern.
Bids for paintings have climbed at auction houses. But prices for fakes run only from about $ 1,000 to $ 10,000 for paintings of paintings, depending on the size and complexity of the original.
In Europe where copying masterpieces is a centuries-old craft, painters often use pigments and brushes typical of the period of the original. The painting is placed in a frame closely resembling its era. Sometimes the gallery purchases 17th century furniture to use the wood for frames. The final step is the antiquing process using chemicals and heat and humidity. "We can make special types of cracks from little spider-web types to long splits. "
This passage is most probably taken out of a/an______.
选项
A、court confession by a person suspected of making fakes
B、commercial advertisement for a new profession in arts
C、feature story in a newspaper, magazine, or a web page
D、industrial profile for a museum promoting a new show
