Two suspects have been arrested in connection with the theft of Napoleonic jewels from the Louvre on October 19, including pieces once owned by Emperor Napoleon III and Empress Eugénie. French authorities detained one man at Charles de Gaulle Airport as he prepared to board a flight to Algeria, and both suspects are in their 30s from the Seine-Saint-Denis area. A newly surfaced video allegedly shows the thieves escaping with $102 million worth of jewelry via a furniture lift; eight artifacts remain missing. Separately, Sotheby's Paris achieved record-breaking totals for Surrealist and modern art auctions during Art Basel Paris, with a Modigliani painting selling for €27 million, the most expensive work ever sold by Sotheby's in France.
