Dear Mr. Jones,
I am writing to you to let you know that my father, Picasso, wanted me to send you a painting of his. It does not look in the least like my father’s work but he insisted that you would know that it was. It is actually signed by Degas. Perhaps my father was becoming forgetful? In any event, the painting is on its way to you at his request. I remember him regaling us with tales of an adventure with you and young Norman Rockwell. I have no idea how true those tales were though. If they were, you were quite the boy about town even at that young age.
Sincerely,
Paloma Picasso
Grandfather told us the story of his wild few days in Paris as a very young boy and how he and Rockwell actually hung out with giants of art like Picasso and Degas. Like many of his stories, I wondered if it was true until I saw the painting hanging in his room some years later.
