ok, so this business of stealing known works of art from public places is confusing in this age of cybercommunication..........artists like munch are too well-known for this sort of stuff to be fenced or sold openly...the only folks who would want it are people who have the means to view it privately and never have need to sell it.....and with the woman in the blue dress.....i am baffled that someone would like it so much that just possessing it and not being able to brag about it would suffice........could it be the same guy who stole/had stolen the scream by the same painter......could this collector just have a passion for the painter and desire to have a fuller grouping of similar works.........if i ever had enough ready cash to bankroll designer heists, i wouldn't bother with munch.....he is too depressing......i would rather have a few still-life oils by cezanne and maybe a landscape or two......just a small suite that would look nice together on the same wall......of course, i wouldn't be able to keep such a marvelous view to myself......that would be a major drawback to this plan.......
