Follow-up on "The Scream"

Remember how I asked that question about what an art thief is going to do with such a high profile work as "The Scream"? Well, check out this article if you've ever asked yourself the same question.

"In a line-up of the world's great art museums, the Museum of the Missing would rank near the top. This imaginary museum, whose collection would consist entirely of stolen paintings and drawings, would sprawl as endlessly as the Louvre. Its treasures would include 551 Picassos, 43 Van Goghs, 174 Rembrandts and 209 Renoirs. Vermeer would be there, and Caravaggio and Van Eyck and Cézanne. On Sunday, the museum made two new acquisitions, Edvard Munch's "Madonna" and "The Scream," which were taken from the Munch Museum in Oslo."
