Tony
Tetro was the world's greatest art forger in the 1970's and 1980's. In a career spanning over 30
years, Tetro forged
works by old and contemporary masters in every genre. From Chagall to
Rembrandt to Dali to Rothko,his extraordinary
talent was to create works so real, so plausible, that
they appeased even the closest scrutiny of the most discerning
eyes. Tetro's works were regularly
passed off as legitmate works in museums, galleries, and auction houses around the
world. Los Angeles
DistrictAttorney Ira Reiner called Tony, "the single largest forger of art works in America."
In 1989, Tony was convicted of art forgery in a show trial in Los Angeles. He was released from jail
in
1994. Currently he executes master copies for an exclusive list of elite clients from his studio in Southern
California.
