The two paintings are so strikingly similar, it would be hard to dispute that they are not the work of the same man.
Of course, many people almost immediately dismissed the painting’s value and regarded it to be a fake. However, Carl has denied these claims and strongly argues the piece is legit. To prove it, Carl even has a mountain of paperwork that goes with this painting, so it would be easy enough to trace the painting back to its original source. So undeterred by the cynical reactions, Carl continued to investigate the painting’s history on his own. He even tried to recruit an expert in the field of art with the hope that they could help verify that this was a Picasso painting. based on everything that he had to prove so.
In response to all of those who doubted Carl and claims that the painting was a fake, Carl has said, “Okay, but where did it come from, in your opinion? It’s in color,’ which was very rare at the time.”
And better still, in his quest to find the original source of the painting, Carl has gone on to discover something very important about Picasso and his work.
It wasn’t long before Carl’s suspicions were later confirmed when a second expert extracted some pigment from the painting and said it matched materials that were used in Europe in the 1930s. And it doesn’t end there. What was even more telling was the discovery of a partial thumbprint embedded in the paint – a thumbprint which could only have been left by the painter himself.
In fact, the appraiser is convinced that the painting is from the same time period and based on all of the paperwork, forensics, and signature, he proclaims that it is, in fact, a Picasso.
