Notify me about this case

Jasper Geeraerts’s Still Life with Nautilus, Lemons, Ham and Glass was taken from its owner in a fraud in Venice in 1999. It later appeared at an auction house in Germany and was recovered by the Carabinieri after it was offered for sale again in Lombardy in 2021. ANSA reported the handover in July 2023.
