News has arrived that a Pieter Brueghel II, which was stolen from National Museum in Gdansk in 1974, has been located in Holland. The picture (click on the link above for a photo) happened to be spotted by a journalist at an exhibition last year who then alerted investigator Arthur Brand to its reappearance. Apparently, the picture is now 'lock and key at a museum in the Dutch province of Limburg'.
