this is the second time in ten years that this icon painting has been stolen. yesterday's robbery was in broad daylight. ten years ago when it was stolen, it was held for ransom. it's too famous to sell to anyone, and considered priceless. why steal this painting?
political reasons? more of a stunt than a theft? i don't get it.
the painting's o.k., a little over rated perhaps, but i sure don't get why someone would want to swipe it.
