For over 17 years, Shaun Greenhalgh and his elderly parents, George and Olive, sold copies of real famous paintings and statues to museums and art dealers all over the world. (1) ……………………… Why did no one think that these pieces
of art were not real? Where did Shaun learn to copy art so cleverly? No one knows the answers to these questions!
The man himself is definitely not talking about it!
(2) ……………………… The story of Shaun's arrest shocked the whole art world. They are calling this one of the biggest art
crimes in history. Everyone is amazed that no one suspected the family for such a long time. When the police finally
found them, the family was living in a small house in Bolton. (3) ……………………… Shaun did his work in a shed in the
garden. This was where he made his amazing copies – everything from paintings and drawings to statues and plates.
Shaun worked with tools from a local shop and used tea to make the objects look old. The work didn’t take him long
either. (4) ……………………… Shaun did the copies and then his father, 84-year-old George, took them to museums and
galleries to sell them. George invented stories about Shaun’s art to persuade the museums to buy it. (5) ……………………
The British Museum, The Tate Modern and other famous places all bought copies from the family.
Some experts believe that Shaun’s art had a value of more than ten million pounds and the family probably made over
a million pounds from their crimes. So why were they still living in an old house? (6) ……………………… No one knows.
Many people believe that Shaun copied the art work because he couldn’t sell his own paintings and statues, not to
make money. He just wanted to be a real artist.
