Seven valuable paintings have vanished from Yervand Kochar Museum in Yerevan, the Kochar Cultural Foundation reports.
The estimated value of the missing paintings by Yervand Kochar, a prominent Armenian artist of the 20th century, is around $500,000.
The artist’s son, filmmaker Ruben Kochar, and lawyer Tigran Atanesyan plan to provide further details at a news conference on Wednesday.
“The Armenian government has been alerted about the incident, and the Investigative Committee is dealing with the case,” the foundation said in a statement.
It also expressed doubts about the authenticity of the state-owned artworks in the museum, alleging illegal transactions.
“Yervand Kochar’s heritage is under threat,” the statement added.
