It sounds like they were able to save the paper work on top? That would make this story a lot better IMHO.
The intentions seem good and directed by a close relative controlling the estate.
The cheeky part of me thinks this is classic genius Mega behavior to 'unearth' or 'discover' a piece that would go for a hundred or maybe two hundred thousand dollars more (Hauser & Wirth).
Plus now they can upsell the 'original' work on paper! it's now a diptych ;) they'll send a PDF, no pricing, nothings available.
Love the last sentence of the article, the mad scramble of galleries, museums, collectors hoping to find a double freebie in their collection!
