This article deals with a group of 8 pseudo-Apulian vases in the archaeological collection of Bruno Marchetti, which the University of Padova received as a bequest in December 2015. The aims of this work are, first, to test an “authentication protocol” based on the synergy of archaeological and archaeometric analyses; second, to investigate the forger’s modus operandi and figurative culture; and lastly, to prove whether these vases can be attributed to the “hand” of the same “serial forger”.

Abstract

This article deals with a group of 8 pseudo-Apulian vases in the archaeological collection of Bruno Marchetti, which the University of Padova received as a bequest in December 2015. The aims of this work are, first, to test an “authentication protocol” based on the synergy of archaeological and archaeometric analyses; second, to investigate the forger’s modus operandi and figurative culture; and lastly, to prove whether these vases can be attributed to the “hand” of the same “serial forger”.
