An elderly French couple who sold an apparently 'worthless' African Mask for $157 are now suing the buyer who turned around and auctioned it off for $4.4 million . The miffed couple has accused a local antique dealer of cheating them out of a fair price for what turned out to be an extremely rare object.
" After a series of legal actions and counteractions, the court has now frozen the sale proceeds while the case is ongoing. According to the report in Artnet, the couple's argument hinges on their suspicion that the dealer knew very well how rare the mask was as he called Drouot Estimation and Fauve Paris immediately, without even displaying the mask in his antique shop.
