A billionaire art collector owns 300 Picassos. He's about to raffle one off.

Nahmad, one of the art world’s most influential dealers, will receive 1 million euros for “Nature Morte” but says it is worth “at least two, three times” that.

But Nahmad says the prospect of parting with “Nature Morte” has made him more appreciative of the small still life, which is signed “Picasso” and shows a newspaper and a glass of absinthe on a wood table., with his Russian first wife Olga Khokhlova and was months shy of his 40th birthday when he completed the painting in June 1921.

They decided to pay Nahmad for the painting, rather than push for a free donation, because they hope to encourage other collectors or galleries to also part with Picasso works for future charity raffles.

So ull have 299 then. If u get enuff for it u can buy 2 cheaper Picasso and have 301. Not understanding any of this

Will just consider this a donation to CAREGlobal 😄 (with a lovely long-shot bonus chance of winning a Picasso painting) Good luck to everybody who's entered 🙂

I didn't know who he was until now. Now I hate his greedy ass.

And if for some horrifically simple reason that Mt. Everest sized asteroid that's due to pass close by Earth this weekend actually hits the planet, that billionaire's gonna feel SO foolish, hoarding all those Picassos. sarcasmisfun
