According to Vasari, the young Michelangelo often borrowed drawings of past masters, which he copied, returning his imitations to the owners and keeping originals. Half a millennium later, Andy Warhol made a game of 'forging' the Mona Lisa, questioning the entire concept of originality. 'Forged' explores art forgery from ancient times to the present.
