Picasso's secret

After a few years and many adventures, the antiquarian discovers that the painting she bought for a few francs is the lost piece from Picasso’s first exhibit in Paris, in 1901. The investigation to gather enough proof to obtain the official certification starts. 

She arrives to the conclusion that Pablo Picasso had painted this picture in the midst of a whirlwind of feelings, after the most awful tragedy of his youth: his best friend, who had fallen in love with him, died in the worst of circumstances.  

This narrative, based on real facts, presents two stories separated in time: that of the historical events in Paris, Barcelona and Malaga which led to the creation of the painting, and that of the actual investigation by an expert, both equally real. The stories alternate as the historical facts corroborate the discoveries of the investigation.
