“Spring Garden”, one of the most famous works by the Dutch artist, was stolen on the night between Sunday and Sunday from the Singer Museum in East Amsterdam • Museum director: "We are shocked, angry and angry"

Shock in the Netherlands: “Spring Garden”, the famous and iconic image of Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh, was stolen on the night between Sunday and Sunday from the Singer Museum in East Amsterdam. The museum was closed to visitors a few days ago following the Corona epidemic, which is apparently what made the theft possible.

This is a painting by the artist from 1884, in which he describes the garden of the house where he lived in the Dutch town of Nuen. At that time, Van Gogh became interested in the lives of workers and peasants and painted many pictures of their lives, including the famous piece stolen.

The painting was on display at the Singer Museum as part of an exhibition by the artist and other modern-day artists, most of them from the Singer's private collection from the US. "We are shocked, angry and angry about what happened," the museum director's statement said. It should be noted that the theft took place exactly on the date of the famous artist's birth. , March 30 (born on this date in 1853 - exactly 167 years ago.) This is a painting that is considered a large part of the world-renowned painter's world heritage, and his theft is a complete loss to the art world.

Prior to its closure following the Corona virus, the museum hosted an exhibition of artists called "The Painting as a Mental Mirror" and engaged in impressionist, Cubist and various styles of the new modern streams of late 19th and early 20th century art.
