Cyril, why not?
Not as an answer to the question of Larry, and for preventive purposes - that others were nepovadno.
Because somewhere in the stolen paintings and find the place and the owner.

In reality, extremely rare.

An acquaintance commissioner wrote a book of memoirs about the artists and called it "Notes huckster" :D

Perhaps we should find out, which means "stolen" some "thieves" as such does not consider himself. And consider his paintings, they are right or they got on the concepts .. and other considerations ... On the market of contemporary art, some dealers paroled take pictures on the implementation of quite prestigious galleries, but for some reason, the artists receive no royalties promised ... I guess it is cheating .. I had a case of theft of 30 sketches in the studio when I studied at the Academy, why are they needed someone that I'll never know, but the fate of them I do not know nothing. And there was a curious case of my friend. He called lucky owners of the missing, told him where purchased that are so happy that he found through a site on the internet, but once he said that working Offensive happy owners have disappeared ...

At Sotheby's found stolen in 1973, Degas. Hence, almost 40 years, he is somewhere in? Periodically carry paintings by Munch, Picasso, Matisse, etc., etc. Well, if returned to work or they are found, and if they disappear into private collections?

Discovered!

I also thought that the paintings are stolen only under orders insidious collectors. And then revered and looked documentaries about the incredibly agile, daring and successful transnational thieves. I was surprised, but they stole the painting "from the lantern," attracted by cost estimates, and thinking that for such a "good" just find a buyer. But in practice there a continuous belt and problems. They had to pass on the money, and pack the Impressionists in vain to keep the business as a mistake.
 Moreover, this storage was extremely dangerous. The last story from Caravaggio to another example.
