The granddaughter of the famous Spanish artist Pablo Picasso is selling off some art from her private collection for more than $290 million, The New York Post's Page Six is reporting.
Marina Picasso, who famously published a book accusing her grandfather of destroying her childhood, is putting at least seven of his works up for sale, including a 1923 portrait of Pablo’s first wife Olga Kokhlova.
The works are being sold directly by Marina, and she will meet the clients personally in Geneva, according to Page Six.
The portrait of Picasso’s first wife, titled “Portrait de femme (Olga),” could sell for over $60 million.

The estate previously served as a museum and gallery dedicated to the artist's work.

In her 2001 memoir, “Picasso: My Grandfather,” she claimed that the painter “drove everyone who got near him to despair and engulfed them.”
A friend of Marina’s told Page Six that the decision to sell is “about letting go of the past."
