Egg Tempera: A Medium Well-DoneIt's a medium that predates oil painting and uses a raw egg yolk as a binder, mixed with water and the same pigments found in other paints. Andrew Wyeth, George Tooker, and Robert Vickrey are the most famous 20th century artists who used it.
Some of its most famous painters include Edvard Munch, Wassily Kandinsky, Erich Heckel and Franz Marc. These artists introduced the new standards for art which later gave birth to Abstract Expressionism and the Neo-Expressionism art movement.
Andy Warhol is undeniably one of the most instantaneously recognised artists in history. His visual approach to 'objects' that were at the time mundane and un-exciting, changed the way consumers and artists thought about the world.

Art forgery is the creating and selling of works of art which are falsely credited to other, usually more famous artists. Art forgery can be extremely lucrative, but modern dating and analysis techniques have made the identification of forged artwork much simpler.
There is nothing morally wrong or illegal with this kind of copying or imitation. Art forgery, however, is different. It involves passing a copy of the artist's work off as created by the original artist, usually for financial gain.
Types of forgery
- Archaeological forgery.
- Art forgery.
- Black propaganda — false information and material that purports to be from a source on one side of a conflict, but is actually from the opposing side.
- Counterfeiting.
- False documents.
- Forgery as covert operation.
- Identity document forgery.
- Literary forgery.
Two types of forgeries exist, simple and simulated. A simple forgery is one in which no attempt has been made to imitate a genuine signature. A simulated signature is one in which the forger has attempted to copy a known signature. The known signature can be copied freehand or it may be traced.
In most jurisdictions, the crime of forgery is not charged unless the forgery is done with the intent to deceive or with the intent to commit an attempted fraud or larceny. In these cases, the copies would become illegal forgeries. Forgery can also involve the creation of fake or fraudulent documents.
Painting the name on a storefront in a landscape painting that didn't appear until after the artist's death would immediately suggest a forgery. Much of these details can be found by looking at the provenance of the work or other details in the artist's catalogue raisonné, or the retrospective body of their work.
Let's take a look at the ten most notorious forgers of all time.
