"The Rape of Europa" is a good documentary about it.

Seriously, it was stolen by men dressed as workers, walked out of the museum and hidden, while fakes that had been prepared earlier were sold at a profit. Now that is style, and the list is lacking for not having mentioned it.

Didn’t Jack Vettriano http://www.photogold.co.uk get into a lot of trouble when it was revealed that he had copied a lot of his images from a £20 book on how to paint ?
