- The great Canadian art fraud case : the Group of Seven & Tom Thomson forgeries / by Dellandrea, Jon S.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."In May 2016, Jon S. Dellandrea came into possession of a box of the last effects of an obscure artist, William Firth MacGregor. The contents of the box chronicled a major, and long forgotten, trial involving forgeries of the art of Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven. The Great Canadian Art Fraud Case takes readers back to 1962, a time when forgeries were turning up on gallery walls, in auction houses, and (unwittingly) being hung in the homes of luminaries across Canada. Inspector James Erskine, enlisting the help of A.J. Casson, the youngest living member of the Group of Seven, set out to discover where the forgeries were coming from. Dellandrea follows Erskine's investigations and the subsequent court case, investigating how unknown and down-on-their-luck artists like MacGregor were implicated and profiling the major characters involved in the case. Lavishly illustrated with more than 100 reproductions and archival images, The Great Canadian Art Fraud Case unravels the mystery of the greatest art fraud trial in Canadian history. Along the way, it also tells the story of a talented artist whose career might have been so very different."--- Subjects: True crime stories.; MacGregor, William Firth; Thomson, Tom, 1877-1917; Group of Seven (Group of artists); Art forgers; Art; Artists; Trials (Forgery);
