Verdict of guilty
PHM,18
Oil on canvas, Ships at sea, signed "J. Hägg", 29x50 cm. Upon examination of the painting showed that something was deleted in the bottom left corner, and that the signature on the right corner is located outside of the other color. The painting is made of a navi amateur. Jacob Hägg was an accomplished marine painter and much more knowledgeable than the counterfeiters. The District Court's assessment: The painting has changed and is therefore a forgery.
