I don’t even want to know what the “collectors” think this expression means.

I would think not until the painting is actually sold.
The banks keep toxic real estate assets on the books until they’re sold, right?

Actually, once it’s restored, I doubt that its value is going to be enormously affected. Many great works have suffered damage and been repaired, and it basically enters into their provenance.
That said, however, Picasso was a true genius...when he was about 13. He painted some truly splendid figurative works in his early years that displayed an incredible maturity and depth. And then he went to Paris...

All seriousness aside, why the hell would they display a fragile $65 million piece in the open, and not protected by a transparent shield?$65 mill is the cost of the damage. Maybe they can set up an easy payment plan for the perp.

Zero ain't worth nothin' and he gets a transparent shield.

LOL!! Excellent work! Love the dangling cigarette. Came across it while doing a keyword search on “Picasso”.
