A Ukrainian man has gone on trial in France accused of masterminding the theft of a €1.5m (£1.32m) painting discovered in a house in Kyiv a year after it disappeared from a museum in Nancy.
The work by Paul Signac, Le Port de La Rochelle, went missing from the Musée de Beaux-Arts in Nancy, north-east France, in 2018.
