Stolen Paintings


-
Recently four paintings were stolen in Zurich. Among them paintings by Monet and Van Gogh.
-
I read today that two of them have been recovered. One was a painting by Vincent Van Gogh called "Blooming Chestnut Branches." The two paintings were discovered in an abandoned car in a parking lot in front of a Zurich mental hospital. Completely appropriate.
-
After living in Holland for 15 years and seeing many, many of his paintings I don't think a great deal of this lunatic Vincent Van Gogh.
