STOLEN ART!
Have you seen these paintings?! This webpage is devoted to stolen works of art by Ian Sheldon, with the most recent lost art featured first.
Vanda - an oil painting measuring 42 x 30 inches. This painting was shipped to Indonesia in September 2001, at the request of Anna Cintia, or someone operating under this name from the email address arif@illim.org. It is possible that the painting is still somewhere to be found on Batam Island, Indonesia. The visa order was charged back to me, indicating that the cardholder either decided to scam me or that the real card holder neither recognized nor authorized the transaction. As it happens, the real card holder is a doctor in New Jersey. How his card information ended up in the hands of an Indonesian is a mystery to him. He is even suspicious that the information came from the bank. This painting is now considered to be stolen property.
A View Into Radcliffe Square and other Oxford scenes - watercolours. In 1999 a number of watercolours were legitimately sold from Objet d'Art Gallery in Woodstock, Oxford, England by the owner Richard Brownsill. After a lengthy delay where payment was not made, court proceedings were undertaken for amounts owing. The court case was uncontested, and Rick Brownsill disappeared with the money owed as well as at least two watercolours that he had not sold, possibly this one showcased here. Proceedings against him were suspended when the lawyer advised that the next step would be to hire a PI to find him.
Senate House Passage miniature edition print #2 of 25 was stolen from a client in Edmonton along with all his possessions that were in temporary storage in 2001.
