Hunter Biden sold “amateurish” artwork for as much as $500,000. Now a government committee wants to know who paid the big bucks.
In a second letter sent to William Pittard — the lawyer for Biden’s Manhattan-based art dealer, Georges Berges — the Committee on Oversight and Accountability is pushing once again for details on collectors who ponied up for Hunter’s six-figure art.
The letter references the prices, from $75,000 to $500,000, and explained that “the Treasury Department studied the use of high-end art as a means to launder money along with other potential illicit transactions.” Comer and his committee want names of people who purchased Hunter Biden’s art and attended his gallery opening.Berges and his lawyer did not reply to requests for comment, nor did a lawyer for Hunter Biden.
