1902–1972, Sweden
Also known as: RS
Verdict of guilty
Investigation in progress
Watercolor, signed RS, 30x23 cm, guitar playing woman. The painting cataloged and sold in October 2011 by a small Auction houses Malmö department over the internet as a work of "Ragnar Sandberg (1902-1972)". The police noted the painting and contacted Ragnar Sandberg's daughter, who dismissed the painting as an original work of her father Ragnar Sandberg. The auction house contacted the buyer and withdrew the painting. The painting is under investigation. Warning! It is possible that crime can not be verified and then the painting will remain in the market. It can therefore once again come up for sale, and incorrectly stated, as an original work of Ragnar Sandberg.
