Gustav SJÖÖ
1902–1969, Sweden
Verdict of guilty
PHM Nr.61
Oil on canvas, 33x41 cm, signed G Sjöö. This painting was not painted by Gustav Sjöö. He "dressed" not as in his paintings. He rarely painted flowers. Of his 300 works are only three floral motifs. The signature is similar to Gustav Sjöös but G and j has no elasticity and it is not performed by Sjöö. The district court's assessment: The painting is a forgery.
