Stolen Picasso Paintings
These were valued at $66 million and stolen from the Paris apartment of Picasso’s granddaughter. They join 549 other Picasso works that have been stolen.
It always confounds me when the works of a notorious artist are stolen, presumably because of their value. No one reputable is gonna touch ‘em, so the thieves either take a cut price or get left holding the bag.
I find Picasso technically interesting, and he definitely set a mood in his work, but overrated. The disjointed, chaotic aspect of it has always been unsettling - not pleasing to the eye.
