Dmitry Rybolovlev, 57, started amassing an art collection and invested about $2 billion in 38 works, ranging from Leonardo da Vinci to Pablo Picasso. He depended on Yves Bouvier, a Swiss art broker, to assist him with negotiations and contracts. Bouvier is accused of buying the artworks first and then reselling them to Rybolovlev, earning him around $1 billion per month. Sotheby & Co. is now defending itself in Manhattan court, saying it was unaware of Bouvier's wrongdoing. Leonardo da Vinci's 'Salvator Mundi,' one of the most famous depictions of Christ, is one of the four masterpieces on display in this week's historic trial.

Pablo Picasso, a Spanish painter, has been dubbed by many as the best artist of the twentieth century. But his name is expected to be re-invented in a new series on BBC2, 50 years since his death. He had a penchant for young and impressionable women who would paint frantically and then disappear, often after getting pregnant. Two former couples and one of his grandsons died on their own, while one of his ex-wives' suicide resulted in a lifelong alienation of his youngest children.

Who are you calling cute?I'm a wolf of the sky! Owls may be cuddly, but they are ruthless hunters whose prey never hears them approaching

www.dailymail.co.uk, July 27, 2023
Ackerman (pictured right), an American science writer, says we're drawn to them because they are so elusive; most of us have only seen an owl in silhouette at night. They may appear cuddly when they're roosting, but as soon as they spot their prey and take flight, they unleash long, strong legs, and talons. Their exceptional hearing is what makes them such excellent hunters: their whole head, Ackerman writes, is 'a feathered satellite dish for gathering sound,' and their sight is so good that they can hunt in complete darkness, led only by the sound of their prey.

Picasso the coloss, a chilling portrait that reveals how he defeated and betrayed younger lovers

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 8, 2023
Pablo Picasso was named as one of the most influential artists ever, and few would disagree with history's conclusion that he was one of the most influential artists ever. No painting has earned him more fame than Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, his iconoclastic Cubist study of five naked prostitutes from a Barcelona brothel. For those, it epitomizes what made Picasso so popular: his experimental painting style and a shockingly modern interpretation of the female form. But are his adoring fans also aware that while he was working on Les Demoiselles, Picasso and his longtime mistress Fernande Olivier, briefly adopted a 13-year-old girl named Raymonde from a Paris orphanage who he sketched spreading her legs? "There is no evidence that Picasso ever abused Raymonde [who was later returned to the orphanage],' wrote artist Miles Unger, 'but it's apparent she raged over his feelings in him, which may have resulted in tragedy.' His adolescent girls' attraction to them, which is likely to occur later in life, is well documented.'
