Pablo Picasso: The mystery surrounding his lover’s portraits in Athens and Capri

Two of Picasso's portraits of Dora Maar are at the center of a major investigation by art experts and authorities. One was stolen from the National Gallery in Athens in 2012 and recovered in 2021, while the other had been missing for 60 years in the Italian resort of Capri
