His father was an art restorer and muralist. According to his own statements, Beltracchi copied a Pablo Picasso painting when he was 14 years old. He was expelled from school when he was 17, and went to art school in Aachen. He said that as a young man, he used drugs such a LSD and opium and started doing art forgeries "a little". He travelled through Europe and lived in Amsterdam and Morocco.〔 He also lived in Mallorca, Spain, and France. In the 1980s for a short time, Beltracchi ran an art gallery together with a business partner. The two had a falling-out and his partner accused Beltracchi of burglary and stealing paintings from his house. Beltracchi vehemently denies this.〔 Fischer met Helene Beltracchi in 1992, and after marrying her in 1993, adopted her surname. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wolfgang Beltracchi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
