Fake or Fortune?
A Modern Masterpiece for £35?
Season 13 Episode 3 of 6
Fiona Bruce and art expert Philip Mould investigate a potential missing work by trailblazing New Zealand-born modernist artist Frances Hodgkins that was bought for just £35 at an auction. The current owner believes it was painted for a post-war scheme called Pictures for Schools, that was intended to place works of art in classrooms to inspire pupils - which may have led to it being mistaken for a student's work
Fake or Fortune? airs on BBC One Scotland HD at 9:00 PM, Monday 4 August. (Subtitles, new, audio description.)
