This was in the in an article in the Independent (British Newspaper) late last
year:
"According to European police experts, as much as half the art in circulation
on the international market could be forged and a large proportion of those
forgeries goes under the hammer in London.
Scotland Yard now has a dedicated full-time unit charged with tracking forged
and stolen artworks, and says that arrests are at an all-time high. Indeed,
barely a year goes by without another high-profile case involving works that
have deceived experts despite having been knocked up in someone's back room."
