The Monaco police arrested a famous Swiss art dealers. Yves Bouvier is suspected multi-million dollar fraud with paintings by Picasso, Modigliani, Gauguin and other artists. Among the victims is a Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev.

We are talking about hundreds of millions of euros. This is the scale of potential fraud with art, which is now investigating detectives of the Principality of Monaco.

Formerly known as the owner of Uralkali, now a resident of Monaco and the owner of the football club. His fortune, estimated by Forbes, a little less than nine billion dollars. The painting is missing. But from deceit no one is immune. According to prosecutors Monaco, family Rybolovlev bought paintings by Picasso, Modigliani, Gauguin, Degas and da Vinci overpriced and fake documents.

Press calls Bouvier largest shareholder of the so-called free port of Geneva. It is a giant repository of works of art. This is created generally for one purpose - to minimize tax payments for owners masterpieces with the repurchase, resale or move values. Complete confidentiality is the basis of success in this business.
Bouvier well-known in Moscow, he spent many years we have exhibitions of fine arts. And his new project and exhibition complex near Paris. Previously, there was the case of Renault.

In addition Bouvier, detained two couple. We heard nothing about them. Secrecy is typical for the world of private collectors. They earn millions - including the fakes. Fake expertise is also a profitable business. Millions are spent on bribery experts. The main thing is to get into the directory masterpieces.

It is likely that the work will have to unravel the detectives Monaco, only one of the episodes. Its threads can engage in private collections around the world.

Really, Rybolovlev naive and trusting, as the majority of Russians.
One thing Uralkali to privatize in Russia of the 90s, and quite another - art in Europe to buy :cool:
Here Dodger Bouvier and his lit. 20-30 million euros with one sold paintings - a good perk. That and "greed dealer killed".:)
