Linguagens / Inglês / Active and passive voice / Passive structures

Maya Widmaier-Picasso, a daughter of Picasso who authenticates works attributed to him, said this week that the drawing of a faun bought in 2004 by a San Francisco doctor through Costco, the warehouse-club wholesaler, was not made by her father and that a certificate accompanying it had been forged.

The pronouncement came three weeks after Widmaier-Picasso declared that two other drawings offered as Picassos at Costco's Web site were not by Picasso – a sketch of a face, sold in 2005 and one of a bullfight, which was not sold and has been withdrawn from the site.

Costco officials said this week that they were conducting an inquiry into the authenticity of the three drawings and ad offered customers full refunds for the two disputed Picasso drawings that were sold.
