Written in a colorful, conversational voice and blending memoir, art history, and true crime, Tetro's account takes readers on a turbulent, fast-paced, high-stakes roller-coaster ride. This is the art world's The Wolf of Wall Street. --Publishers Weekly (starred review) Author Information"Tony Tetro is a world-renowned art forger who has produced countless pieces that have easily passed as the work of the Masters from Rembrandt to Monet to Picasso to Dali. For over forty-five years, Tetro's work duped the art world and appeared as legitimate pieces in museums, galleries, auction houses, and private collections across the globe. In 1989, Tetro was convicted of art forgery in a heavily publicized trial in Los Angeles. He was released from prison in 1994. He has since become a media figure and he continues to paint original works in the style of famous painters for an exclusive list of clients. In 2019, four of his pieces were scandalously discovered in Prince Charles' collection. Giampiero Ambrosi is the founder of Oak Grove Films and has extensive experience in investigative and hard news documentary. After following Tetro's story for over twenty years, Ambrosi was part of the team that uncovered Tetro's inadvertent connection to the 2019 Prince Charles art forgery scandal in the Mail on Sunday, which was nominated for ""Investigation of the Year"" at the 2020 British Journalism Awards. He is producing a forthcoming feature documentary on the Prince Charles art forgery scandal.
