Anna Delvey will tell you that Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. She sent a doodle to Saturday Night Live star Chloe Fineman, who portrayed the con artist in Netflix’s “Inventing Anna” limited series, in March.
When Chloe tries to pay using a Metro card at a precise point in the sketch, the drawing depicts her doing so. “Do it all over again!'” A 30 Rock employee is screamed at by Chloe (as Anna).
At Delvey’s art show Allegedly, hosted at New York City’s Public Hotel on May 19, the drawing’s existence was first revealed. When Chloe saw the artwork, she knew she had to own it.
