Smuggled Picasso Heading Home to France After 14-Year Odyssey

The Hairdresser is going home.

U.S. officials will return “La Coiffeuse,” a Pablo Picasso painting stolen more than a decade ago from a Paris art museum, to French officials in a ceremony at the country’s embassy tomorrow. Worth $2.5 million when it disappeared from the Centre Georges Pompidou in 2001, its value is millions more today, according to court documents.
