Stolen Munch Paintings Are Recovered
This pleases me, as I really love Edvard Munch’s work.
Edvard Munch’s paintings “The Scream” and “Madonna,” which two armed robbers yanked from the wall of a museum here in August 2004, were recovered in relatively good condition in Norway today.
I cannot comprehend the logic (or the logistics) involved, in profiting from something that high-profile. It would have to be sold to a private collector, were they to profit from it in any way. In turn, the collector could share it with no one, lest he be found out and turned in for the $325,000 reward.
