Peter's Painting

Peter Guppy, the owner of Prosperity Hardware in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn New York, believes he has uncovered an authentic Kazimir Malevich painting, which could be worth millions of dollars. For years, he has been trying to prove that his painting is a genuine Malevich. He’ll point out a faded face that was erased long ago, which he compares to a well-known Malevich painting with a similar figure. In an effort to authenticate the painting, he makes contact with art experts, yet throughout this process, we start to wonder if Peter actually wants to know the truth or continue to live with the unobstructed idea that the painting could possibly be an authentic work.
