They condemned it as a forgery, in which police were called who took the painting seized for further investigation. In questioning Kerstin Lindell says that the painting might be painted by Lage, in that case before 1945, however, the signature is definitely not made of Lage. Submitter states that he bought the painting along with another person in a gallery in Stockholm held by a brother of Lage Lindell. According to Kerstin Lindell had Lage Lindell no brother who had a gallery. Lage Lindell,s son, John Lindell, who is familiar with Lage,s earlier painting of the same opinion as the mother, the painting may have been made by Lage, but it is not he who signed it.
