Book Chapter
For art's sake
2010
Overview
By November 1929, De la Faille had a year of turmoil behind him, all of it having to do with Otto Wacker's Van Goghs. The distribution of the Supplément had not been greatly appreciated, although his published works and letters do not suggest that this caused him undue suffering. On the contrary, they reveal a certain intransigence quite in keeping with a man who is sure of what he is doing and is seeking to redress the fraud of which he has been such an unwilling instrument. His behavior was consistent with the basic attitude he had shown earlier in articles about conflicts of interest, forged Rembrandts, and expertise bureaus - articles that had made him a controversial figure in the art world. His newest démarche, the open struggle against fake Van Goghs, reinforced his reputation for being headstrong.
