The Norway Post - Stolen religious painting recovered

Stolen religious painting recovered

The famous Renaissance painting worth NOK 20 million which was stolen from the Larvik Church in Vestfold early Sunday, has been recovered, apparently unharmed. One man has been arrested.

A spokesman for the Vestfold police precinct said Wednesday evening that the painting had been found in a van, and was now in police hands.

One person has been arrested, charged with having participated in the theft, police said. They were not willing to give more details at this time.

The painting by Lucas Cranach (1472-1553), a personal friend of Martin Luther, has hung in the Larvik Church for 330 years.

The painting titled \"Let the small children come to me\", and was painted 450 years ago.

Stolen painting, from a church..

 Someone broke in and stole  this Renaissance painting, from a church (Larvik Kirke) in Larvik (Norway), it's painted by Lucas Cranach "the elder" and is painted on a wooden board.


The value of the painting is about 20.000.000,- NOK (2.836.000,- USD)
It don't mater if it's a church, a mosque or a synagogue.. You just don't steel from these kind of buildings..

It's been on the same wall in the same church from the day the church was open in year 1666 !!

Spring is coming to Bergen..

Finaly the spring is coming and days are longer with more daylight..
The new thing for me is my investment in bus card, and for the last month i just used the car two times. It's so nice, i save money and get more exercise at the same time. I have a 15 min walk to and from the bus stop every day. It's a win/win situation :-)
Another good thing, is now with more daylight the possibility for shooting some pictures are better then in the winter time.
My camera is always close and i never leave home without it. My plan is to use the opportunity to take some pictures between home and work, thats the plan and i think i will see it trough.
Stil not to mutch light in the dawn, but it's comming :-)

Our princes is growing and she loves listening to music, and when we find the old and broken guitar she loves it. The guitar misses some strings and is out of tune, but she don't care.
At the end.
