He was killed, his skull crushed, in Rome in January 1996, a few weeks after he published "The Art Forger's Handbook," in which he revealed his techniques in manual form. His killer has not been found. (inglés)

Eric Hebborn was a confidence man with enormous artistic talent and a point to make. Born in 1934, he was a garrulous rogue. Early in his painting career, when he was still making "Hebborns" and signing his name to them, he dealt a little on the side. Brian Sewell, who was an acquaintance of Hebborn's, says that Hebborn began faking art out of anger toward Colnaghi's, among the world's most respected dealers of old master work. Sewell tells the story that one day Hebborn bought a number of drawings in a junk shop for $:12, then went immediately to Colnaghi's and sold them for $:25. Sometime later, "Hebborn went to an old master drawings exhibition at Colnaghi's, where he saw the same drawings on sale for thousands of pounds," he says. "He was so angry about it that he said he'd have the buggers. And he did. Then he said if he could take Colnaghi's, he could take Christie's and Sotheby's. And he did."Between the late 1950's and 1996, Hebborn made more than 1,000 drawings and paintings, in a broader range of styles and time periods than any faker in history. He counterfeited the work of many of the most important European artists from the 15th to the 20th centuries. He made ink from authentic ingredients and bought Renaissance-era books and manuscripts to harvest blank pages. In fact, Hebborn targeted artists to fit the paper he found, not the other way around -- a brilliant stroke. (inglés)
