And, then there's Dali.
Toward the end, all he did was sign blank canvases, for money, of course.
Because of his late-life laziness, he's become the second most forged artist in history, after Picasso.
In fact, I own a fake (not forged) Dali that's supposed to be one of the Song of Solomon set. I've also got one of the real Song of Solomon lithos.
The fake one is laughably bad. It looks like an 8-year-old drew it. In fact, it's so bad, it's good. Well, not really good, but it is fun to own a fake Dali. I inherited them from my Mom, who was a real Dali fan.
And, then there’s Dali.

Way back in the day, maybe 40 years ago, my mother had a sales job in a gallery in Vegas that specialized in the Dali lithos.
At the end, they had his sig photolithoed on a stone and just struck what was needed for inventory. The entire operation was sleazy, but presented as posh and elevated.
She said his wife and business manager were cheating him.
