Sotheby’s Sells Stolen Work

El País reported today that a triptych by Ambrosius Benson, Lamentación de Cristo (Christ’s Lament), which was stolen from the Santa Cruz de Nájera (La Rioja) Church in 1913, has sold for 1.46€ in a Sotheby’s auction in London. Unfortunately, and even though the piece was stolen, successive sales of the piece have made its current sale legal.
