Stolen Van Gogh works return to public display after 17 years
Restored paintings go on view in Amsterdam, bringing story of infamous art heist to a close
Seventeen years after being snatched from Amsterdam’s Van Gogh Museum, two of the Dutch master’s greatest works have been put back on public display, bringing the story of one of most infamous postwar art heists to a close.
View of the Sea at Scheveningen and Congregation Leaving the Reformed Church in Nuenen by Vincent van Gogh were stolen in the dark of a December night in 2002.
