A sketch by Pablo Picasso, valued at $650,000, was stolen from a house on the outskirts of Mexico City, local media reported on the day before.

A thief broke into the house in a posh area and made off with a metallic suitcase holding the sketch, which was not named or described.

Also stolen was $90,000 in cash and a collection of luxury watches, according to the state-run news agency Notimex.

Picasso, one of the most recognized figures of 20th century art, was one of the founders of the Cubist movement.
