€1m Picasso painting to be won for €100 in charity raffle

Number of tickets to win Tête de Femme will be capped at 120,000 and proceeds will go to Alzheimer’s research

A raffle in France is offering the chance to win a portrait by Pablo Picasso for the price of a €100 (£87) ticket, with proceeds going to Alzheimer’s research.

Picasso painted the gouache-on-paper Tête de Femme (Head of a Woman) in 1941. The raffle organisers’ online sales platform says the number of tickets will be capped at 120,000, meaning the draw could net €12m if they are all sold.
