Art connoisseurs see something in it. I've never been a fan of art too much, so every "masterpiece" has been 'meh' to me.
They must've been pretty crazy to have wanted to do that.

I read about it earlier. The article says the Scream painting is worth between $60-75 MILLION! The other painting they stole of the Madonna is worth almost $15 million. So if they get those paintings to an auction........

The Scream painting has been stolen before!! Last time was not long ago! But they only walked in with a gun and were given what they wanted!
