Twelve paintings from the Blaquier-Arrieta collection, including works by Van Gogh, Monet and Cézanne, are to be auctioned at Sotheby’s in New York on Wednesday. The collection is linked to Carlos Pedro Blaquier, who was accused of involvement in the 1976 disappearance of hundreds of people in Argentina; up to 55 remain missing, and charges against him never went to trial before his death in 2023. Van Gogh’s *Châtaigniers en fleurs* is estimated at about $180 million, which would exceed his auction record; Sotheby’s said Blaquier was never convicted and maintained his innocence.
