Focus on The Wounded Table and analyze the Attempted sale.
In June 2019 Mexican authorities announced the arrest of a man in Morelos State who was attempting to sell the painting. Officials were tipped off when he attempted to have the contract of sale certified by a notary public. According to the documents, the painting would have been sent to a buyer in London in exchange for a Mex$20 million house in Acapulco. Mexican officials said the sale could have been a fraud since the detainee did not physically present the painting.
