The legal issues surrounding Yves Bouvier and Olivier Thomas stem from the disappearance of approximately 70 Picasso works over a decade, initially discovered by Catherine Hutin.
Catherine Hutin's inventory revealed missing artworks after Olivier Thomas stored them, raising questions about the handling of her late mother Jacqueline Picasso's collection.
Yves Bouvier faces serious scrutiny as he claimed to have bought two missing portraits from a gallery, yet no evidence of this transaction was found.
The case illustrates a deepening dispute over ownership and accountability in the art world, highlighting challenges in tracking valuable pieces.
