It seems art thieves are becoming more active these days. Not long ago thieves stole 2 Picasso paintings.
Now 4 more paintings have been stolen from a EG Buehrle Collection in Zurich. Masked thieves broke in and stole masterpieces by Cézanne, Degas, Van Gogh and Monet worth $170 million.
The stolen masterpieces are "Poppies near Vétheuil" by Claude Monet, "Count Lepic and his Daughters" by Edgar Degas, "Blossoming Chestnut Branch" by Vincent Van Gogh and "Boy in a Red Waistcoat" by Paul Cézanne.
This is the biggest art robbery in Europe since 1988 when three Van Gogh works worth £94 million
