Ari Hodara, an art enthusiast from Paris, had an incredible surprise on April 14, when he learned that he had won a painting by Pablo Picasso, valued at 1 million dollars, with a raffle ticket costing only 100 euros. After the organizers contacted him to inform him of his win, Hodara was hesitant and wondered how he could verify the authenticity of this news, fearing a possible hoax. This event highlights not only his luck but also the ongoing appeal of Picasso's works in the art market.
