    Misidentified Brewster Chair is exposed as a modern forgery

    The institution purchased a chair in 1970 believing it to be a seventeenth-century Brewster Chair. In 1977 it was identified as a modern work made in 1969 by Rhode Island sculptor Armand LaMontagne. The museum retained the object as a teaching example about forgery and authentication.
