The Mystery of the "Stolen" Painting




A stolen Renoir, what a great story!

This little Renoir, the size of a dinner napkin, was seized by the FBI from Martha Fuqua, who claims  she purchased it at a flea market in 2009 for $7.

BUT the Baltimore Museum of Art claims that it was stolen from them in 1951.

What will be the fate of this lovely little gem?
