I can forgive her, if the content was at least as interesting as the original authors works, if not better. I watched a program last night about artworks being assessed for genuineness and I thought the suspect piece was actually better than the original. If it wasn't for the ridiculous amounts of money being exchanged for items, I don't think anybody would care (and if they love what they have, should care).


Yes!
