The painting may be identified as fake by donating it to [[Blathers]] or selling it to either [[Tom Nook]] or [[Timmy and Tommy]], where they will comment on it. Upon doing so, the item's name changes to "forged painting". The item's name also changes after one day from purchase, even if it was not inspected. Forgeries may be sold to Tom Nook for 10 Bells. | The painting may be identified as fake by donating it to [[Blathers]] or selling it to either [[Tom Nook]] or [[Timmy and Tommy]], where they will comment on it.
