Three Paintings Stolen from Renoir Museum
Three paintings were stolen from the Renoir Museum in the city of Cannes-sur-Mer on the French Riviera. The thieves broke into the museum before 6 a.m. and managed to escape with three artworks, despite a police chase that resulted in one of the paintings being dropped during the pursuit. Targeting the museum is considered an attack on part of Cannes-sur-Mer’s cultural heritage. The museum, established in 1960, houses a wide collection of Renoir paintings, including 13 paintings and around 40 sculptures, along with furniture and photographs. The stolen paintings are considered highly valuable, having previously sold for tens of millions of dollars.
