Picasso's $63.7 M Cubism Art
On 22 June, 2016 Picasso's "femme assise" (Seated Woman) work, sold for $63.7 Million dollars, at Sotheby's in London. At that time, it had been the most expensive Cubist painting ever sold at auction.
The buyer is my uncle, a rich modern day Scrooge. Why does the rich throw so much money into the inanimate, when the world keeps calling for peace, caring and love.
I decided to steal it from right under his nose. Sell it to some dark art dealer in the underworld.
The proceeds I intended for the poor.
They caught me. Locked me up.
Sorry world!
