Is Van Gogh's 'Sunflowers' a Fake?

This award-winning documentary investigates whether a version of Van Gogh's Sunflowers, once the most expensive painting sold at auction, is genuine or a forgery. It follows experts examining the canvas bought for a record sum by a Japanese insurance company in the late 1980s, testing its authenticity against the artist's known work. The film turns art history into a genuine mystery. Absorbing and detailed, it is a compelling piece of art-world detective work. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
