German police, in collaboration with Swiss authorities, have dismantled a sophisticated art forgery ring that attempted to sell fake paintings attributed to renowned artists such as Picasso, Rembrandt, and Frida Kahlo. Investigators seized a significant number of counterfeit artworks during a multi-million euro raid, which uncovered forgeries that falsely claimed to be genuine masterpieces, including a disputed Rembrandt painting from the Rijksmuseum. The operation highlights ongoing efforts to combat art fraud, as authorities displayed these counterfeit pieces in Munich, drawing attention to the scale of the forgery scheme.
