“A man discovered an old painting in his home that turned out to be a Pablo Picasso worth roughly $6.6 million (£5 million) — hidden away for decades all because his mother hated it. Andrea Lo Rosso said his dad Luigi, who worked as a junk dealer, was cleaning out a cellar in a house in Capri, Italy, in 1962 when he came across it.”
The dad didn’t even know who Picasso was!
Picasso normally looks like ass to me.
Pretty much here as well, but something is worth what somebody will pay for it.
I’m with Andrea Lo Rosso’s mother; it is an ugly painting. The son didn’t just happen to find the painting in the attic. The father had the painting displayed in their living room for decades. Andrea had read about Picasso in an encyclopedia and had tried for years to convince his father that it was a real Picasso, but his father had never heard of him.
Crazy how there’s famous art just sitting around. An Emily Carr painting was just found in a barn. He bought it for $50 and could go for $200K at auction.
