This story is Front Page news everywhere in Europe. Plenty of images in every TV news wire. What do you think :
A - we are being told the true story.
B - this story is manufactured.
I go for B, and the goal is clear. The mechanisms of art auctions are well known, as well as the manufacturing of "genious" like Picasso or Wahrol, as part of an agenda of mind control.
This particular case has additionally something special. Can anyone also see it ?

I need an art history major to explain the big fuss. I don't quite understand the hysteria drummed up for this picture.

The reason why modernist crap like Picasso's sells for a lot of money is because of speculation. Its intrinsic value is about $1.95. The Pieta, on the other hand, is priceless.

Do any of you remember an old Saturday Night Live skit, where Jon Lovitz is Picasso, and he sneezes into a napkin, signs it, and says "I'm Picasso!!!"? While there are a couple pieces of his I really like, most of it is snot in a napkin :-P

Yes of course. Was searching trying to find Velazquez's "The Piper". It is a stunning painting which outshines any of the rest posted on this thread.

Yeah. It's homo-erotic art.
The kid's got a hard-on in his pants going up his left leg,
and spread legs which are the "focus" of the composition.
