the other day at the Philadelphia Art
Club:
“I see that in Paris the experts arc
proving the authenticity of dubious
old masters by means of the X-ray.
This is a good idea. It will do away
with a lot of hoaxing.
“I heard the other day of a dealer
who tried to hoax a profiteer. The
dealer offered a Raphael for sale,
I pointing to the signature the profiteef
said.
“ ‘The name don’ look like Raphael.
Looks more like Rachel to me.’
“The dealer examined the signature
himself.
“ ‘Yes, it is Rachel,” he said. ‘I’ll
tell you the history of that. When
Raphael painted that picture he was
in hard luck, y’understand, so he put
it in the wife’s name.”
