In order to pay Mr. Offill's legal fees and give Mr. Bruteyn living expenses, Mr. Kingston said, he agreed to use InterFinancial shares to buy a Picasso painting owned by Mr. Bruteyn's mother for $431,000. The Picasso, called Hands with Bouquet, is actually a print worth about $100, an art expert testified.
Mr. Kingston call me. I have prints for sale, too!
