Dealer Yves Bouvier to stand trial in Paris over missing Picassos

Swiss dealer Yves Bouvier has been ordered to stand trial in a Paris criminal court over the alleged disappearance of dozens of works by Pablo Picasso from a storage unit. The unit was rented by Picasso's stepdaughter, Catherine Hutin, from Bouvier's company. Bouvier faces charges of concealing stolen goods and laundering, while his business partner, Olivier Thomas, is charged with breach of trust, embezzlement, and laundering. The investigation, triggered by Hutin's 2015 complaint, found that nearly 70 works went missing, with some, including two portraits and 60 drawings, later discovered to have been sold by Bouvier to Russian collector Dmitri Rybolovlev for €36 million.
