“You know it’s a Picasso because there is some magic coming off it,” Brand told The Associated Press. “But a forger never knows how the back looks,” Brand said, without disclosing the tell-tale detail. “When I saw the back of the painting, I knew it was the real one.”“Finally, I tracked somebody down who had had it in his possession 10 years ago,” he said. “And then it still took me three years to get near it.”
The work finally made it to a person, who contacted Brand to turn it over. The art sleuth has given it to an insurance company and it wasn't immediately clear what would happen to it.
