Copied Work?

I'd call that a match...plus, given that the buyer is a convicted tax felon and the difference between the prices of fakes (1,250$) to an original by the artist (35,000$) is so large, I'm not really giving the owner much of a benefit of the doubt. What mystifies me is that a billionaire real estate baron, someone who has very visible buildings, would place fakes completely out in the open...in the same country and state that the original artist is from.
Granted California is a big-ass state, you still would think that a guy that rich would have enough lawyers that one would point out the stupidity of openly displaying a plagiarized work.

Now lets not convict anyone I guess. Let's let them tell their story. I just find it strange in a world with so many avenues of research, a billionaire would even risk buying an unoriginal piece, let alone multiple copied works...someone's getting sued...and fired.
