Paintings worth millions of euros found in France

The recovered works include "Young Woman at the Well" and a portrait of actress Colonna Romano. Their value is estimated at EUR 8-10 million.

The theft occurred on September 8. The two perpetrators entered the museum through a hole in the fence. Within a few minutes, they took four paintings by Auguste Renoir, considered to be the most valuable exhibits of the facility. They abandoned two of them during their escape.

The museum in Cagnes-sur-Mer is located in the house where one of the most important creators of Impressionism spent the last years of his life.
