The above box set, numbered 2639, is a counterfeit.
In case any member purchased it from shamsa, I would encourage them to initiate a chargeback request with their card issuer.

A couple of the original photos, which are of high-enough resolution to judge, reveal one of the immediate tells.
Zoom in on the counterfeit artwork itself.
Direct your attention to the children, focusing especially on their hands and faces, and you will find they are insufficiently detailed:

At the time, a spotlight was briefly shone on @buckets101 / Mohammed123 โ who had been using the email/PayPal address nidal.nidal.issa@gmail.com, along with the name or pseudonym Nidal Alabab.
Within minutes, @buckets101 / Mohammed123 deleted their account here.
Hat-tip to Monkey for their assistance back then.

Note that clear similarities exist between the fakes being dumped onto unsuspecting collectors in 2021 and 2023.
It would therefore not surprise me if @buckets101 / Mohammed123 and shamsa were the same scammer or otherwise related parties.

Looks too small each end for a start, the wrong shape and the paint also looked odd. Maybe the quality has just slipped.

When you come across fakes from any of these sellers please don't buy, but report!

eBay is currently swarmed with fakes and unlike other major marketplaces and auction sites, eBay doesn't seem to give a sh*t, as long as they're making $$$. For the buyers out there that don't know how to spot fakes:
1. Price too good to be true? It's probably fake.
2. Ask for additional provenance next to the COA.
Not there? Don't buy.
3. Check out Marc Pairon's book and compare.
